Carey is off on a bachelor party weekend w/ friends and Reagan is spending the night with me, as I don't want to sleep alone. HA...i know I'm a sissy. We've been having general "religious" conversation and I think it's been good for both of us and put a couple of things into perspective about what we believe as Catholics and what we believe as Christians, yes two different things. Sometimes, heck most times, it can be overwhelming, faith that is. Do we really have it? Do we have enough? How do we get more? What do we believe and what do we not believe? How do we know we're doing the right things? That is what Faith is isn't it?
Hebrews 11:1 Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen. We just have to have it. 6: But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for any who approaches God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him. I'm a firm believer that He/Him when referencing God should be capitalized...DUH.
The devotion today touched on having that personal relationship with God, just being able to talk to Him like a friend. The coincidence or "Godwink" was that Reagan and I were talking about how important that truly is in life. We have to have a friend in Jesus Christ, He is a Savior. Our sins are forgiven, but we still have to admit to our friend that we did Him wrong. It really makes the relationship stronger.
We have to ask God for help in finding the words because He already knows what is in our heart.
