FAITH THAT MOVES MOUNTAIN
Faith is about who we become while having faith that the mountain will move, not just about witnessing it happen.
Sweetest Reader,
Although mountains can take many different forms in our lives, I’m not sure what mountain you might be facing at the moment. Some are obvious difficulties that we may readily identify, while others are silent burdens that lurk in the recesses of our hearts.
Over time, I’ve discovered that mountains frequently put our faith to the test rather than our patience.
However, faith is sometimes misconstrued. Many people believe that faith entails having complete confidence at all times. However, genuine faith seldom feels so polished; it sometimes manifests as continuing to trust God in the face of uncertainty and as whispering a prayer when doubt is still present.
When Scripture speaks about faith that moves mountains, this does not imply that extraordinary belief must be forced by sheer effort. Rather, it directs us toward a more profound reality: trust flourishes when it is rooted in God’s promises.
God’s promises are more than just transient comfort; they are statements about His personality. When God makes a promise, it is based on His faithfulness rather than on how our circumstances change.
On some days, the gap between where you are and where you think God is guiding you may seem insurmountable, like a mountain in front of you.
However, every time you choose to think that God’s intentions are still being carried out, even if you are unable to see the results just now, your faith is increased. Sometimes the mountain stays for a season because God is moulding something inside of us while we walk beside it, not because He has forgotten His promise.
Faith is about who we become while having faith that the mountain will move, not just about witnessing it happen.
So don’t be discouraged if you find yourself facing a mountain today. Your faith doesn’t have to be flawless. All it has to do is stay in touch with the faithful.
God has never broken any of His promises.
