GOD REJOICES!

 







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
