GOD REJOICES!
Are you a person
OF FAITH-in God?
Are you a person
Of faith in OUR LORD Jesus?
If so=the Holy Father God=
And Jesus=REJOICE in you=
They LOVE a person with FAITH
They love a person=
Who has FAITH=who keeps on going
Even when=
The TRIALS are great
If you are ONE
Who is keeping on going=
In terribly tough times=
God & Jesus rejoice in you=
GOD REJOICES!
“Then he asked them=
'WHY are you so terrified?=
Do you not yet=HAVE FAITH?'” Mark 4:40
Today the disciples' faith
Is TESTED=as they go about
In the boat=to try
And REACH the other side
A storm rages on=and to make
Matters worse=Jesus is asleep
In the boat
And OUR FAITH is tested
Every day=for a variety
Of reasons
Health-finances-and relationships=
NOT to mention the trials=
That every one of us face
Every day
We all FACE
Moments of DOUBT in life=
Even the disciples did
We ALL have our faith TESTED=
We all face
MOMENTS OF DOUBT
But we BELIEVE with
The GIFT OF FAITH
That we CAN keep on going-
Even in doubt=
Even WHEN our faith is being TESTED
This pleases God
This touches God=
That we are ABLE
To keep on going=NO MATTER WHAT
When we do this=GOD REJOICES!=
God rejoices in us
“Jesus replied=
'Truly I tell you
If you have FAITH
And do NOT DOUBT
Not only can you
Do what was done
To the fig tree
But also you can say=
To this mountain=
'Go throw yourself
Into the sea
And it will be done'
If you believe=
You will receive-
Whatever you ask for in prayer” Matthew 21:21
When we READ more
About Christ=
When we read more
About him=THROUGH SCIPTURE
We place our GIFT OF FAITH=
On the firm foundation
Of the Church=in the community
GOD REJOICES!=Jesus rejoices=
When we pray
For a stronger DESIRE=for faith
“I delight=
Greatly in the Lord=
My soul REJOICES
In my God” Isaiah 61:10
When our faith is ENCOURAGED=
We are able to go
WHERE God leads us
And follow the gospel
In COMPLETE TRUST in Christ
In Jesus' name=God the Holy Father=REJOICES IN US
