For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed in a way that awakens more faith]. As it is written and forever remains written, “The just and upright shall live by faith.” Romans 1:17 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Our walk in faith begins with baby steps and as we experience Jehovahs righteousness which is a morally right or justifiable a righteous decision. We learn to trust Him more and more with every aspect of our life. As we do He will lengthen our strut with Him until we are walking with huge steps not baby ones.
That does not mean we will never doubt Him.
I have been on this walk towards Heaven for thirty years and there are still times of doubt. That is okay though when we handle it the right way.
And, of course, the right way is to take it to Jehovah in prayer and to read our Bibles.
He will not always answer us right away and that is when we need to reflect back on how faithful He was in the past to encourage us as we walk along blindly in faith as He is taking us into the unknown and preparing us for the unknown service unto Him.
“Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.” Martin Luther
Prayer: Thank you Holy Spirit Rabbi (God our Teacher) for blessing me with Your patient Divine education in enlarging my faith through the decades. Thank you that You are constantly expanding my trust in Jehovahs guidance, Jesus’ strength and Your wisdom to continue the walk towards Heaven on the path Jehovah has chosen for me to take. I praise You all in the name of He who will greet me at Heavens gate Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.

Being refined is so difficult, but not living in God’s will is even more so.
Praying reveals ourselves and draws us closer to Him because we see just how much we need to depend on Him and He is everything. However it is so eye opening that when you do pray and see yourself how hard it is to let go… At least for me. I pray every day for Him to be my desire and cleanse my heart and at the same time I feel like a hypocrite when something comes up and I have to choose. ha
I do not want a stagnant, ‘Christian’ life.
It’s an every day choice and a lifelong commitment of denying yourself and walking His way.
