Along with my last post, I wanted to share some things that I have sent back and forth between a really good friend of mine. She was questioning why God was putting certain struggles in her life when she felt as though she didnt deserve them.
Friend: But my struggles don't bring me closer to him. They just push me further away... I'm lost.
Me: I know it can be so confusing sometimes. That is also the doubt factor and Satan working in your head. You just have to be stroing and push through and trust God at all times
Friend: It's so hard most times.
Me: I know. God is so powerful because he is confusing.
Friend: It is just so hard for me because in order for me to believe it and understand it and accepy it, I have to physically see it and touch it and hear it. God isn't like that.
Me: Kaylan answer this: do you have a brain?
Friend: Yes
Me: God is like your brain. He is there to think for you. To help you make the right decisions. You can't see your brain. You can't touch your brain, but you have to believe that it is there. The true meaing to faith starts with being able to get down on your knees and truly say "I believe"
