Faith, Hope, and Love

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance" (James 1:2-3)

"But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt." (James 1:6a)

"Every good and perfect gift is from above coming down from the Father of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows" (James 1:17)

"My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism" (James 2:1)

"I have hidden your Word in my heart, that I might not sin against you." (Psalm 119:11) The Psalm also says to walk with God and to seek Him with all your heart.

"Your Word, Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens." (Psalm 119:89)

"There is no one like the God of Jeshurum, who rides across the heavens to help you and on the clouds in His majesty. The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemies before you." (Deuteronemy 33:26-27a)

"Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed, says the Lord who has compassion on you." (Isaiah 54:10)

When you believe, God gives. When your faith is tested, don't let it be washed away. If it isn't washed away, you will grow stronger in belief in Jesus. Reading God's Word, meditating on it, and putting it in your heart  helps you to believe and helps you refuse to sin, Refuse to hate, refuse to be angry, except for righteous anger at evil beings for trying to ruin God's World and His people. Belief in jesus stops us from sinning because He commands us not to sin, and we love Him, so we obey Him. There is no such thing as an unforgivable sin, though. God loves everyone and never gives up on anyone. He gives everyone faith, and that's a start.

That's all for now. Read both the old testament and the new testament. Love,
Rebecca <3 :)
