Help My Unbelief

Pam Weinreis • May 09, 2024

Faith is the title deed of things hoped for.

Is your faith resilient and sturdy?

The definition of resilient: able to withstand difficult conditions.

Or today do you feel like your faith is wavering a bit?

Faith is not merely holding to certain teachings, such as that God exists,

but rather it is a strong conviction that the world around us is part of a greater plan.

God's plan.

Faith means that although at times the world looks chaotic and uncontrolled, we know deep down this chaotic world is not our home.


Hebrews 11:1-3 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created

by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.


Do we say we have faith, yet our unawareness leads us to go through the motions of a religious activity as enough.

far too often, we live indirectly off of our Pastor's or other leaders' spirituality and relate to God while busily "on the run."

What challenges keep you from slowing down your life to be with God?

The New Testament reveals that faith and hope go hand in hand for the followers of Jesus.

Our faith is the title deed of things hoped for: it's proof that what we believe is real, as well as the certainty that our hopes will become actualized in heaven. (Part of this paragraph is from, Without Wavering, by Alexandra Hoover}


Hebrews 11:1-2 {The Message} Eugene Peterson writes, "The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm

foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It's our handle on what we can't see. The act of faith is what distinguishes our ancestors,

sets them above the crowd."



How's your foundation?

Whether it's firm, shaky, or sinking we can live in the fact that faith is a gift.

God is the Creator and Giver of it.


We can surrender each day to Jesus.

We can believe in His promises and allow Him to use us for the good works He has planned.

Let us grow in faith and help our unbelief.


Until next time. Pam

Familiar

By Pam Weinreis • 14 Apr, 2024
What is familiar to you? Your children's voice, your spouse, your daily routine, the road you travel? We have many things very familiar to us. Webster defines familiar: common, well known, close association. The word origin from the Latin is, "the family footing."

Loneliness

By Pam Weinreis • 27 Feb, 2024
Nearly one out of three older Americans are lonely, according to a recent study. The study revealed that the biggest shift in loneliness rose among the younger generations. Loneliness is distress caused by a lack of satisfactory relationships, not just being alone.

Life That Is Truly Life

By Pam Weinreis • 10 Feb, 2024
Life That is Truly Life Is our society consumer based? Did you know that only a century ago 90 percent of Americans were farmers? Life was hard, but simpler too. They mostly lived off the land and traded with neighbors whatever else they needed. Money was rarely used. And most of the things they owned fell into the category of needs, not wants. Today only 2 percent of Americans work agriculture. The last century has radically reshaped the American economy. People moved to cities for jobs, where goods were produced. After the wars, politicians and businessmen worked hard to remake the American economy. It was said their goal was to get the simple farmers children to spend their time and money buying up the latest thing. To grow a generation of consumers.

Un-Hurry Your Life

By Pam Weinreis • 27 Jan, 2024
Have you ever considered "boredom" as good for you? Is boredom good for your kids? Do you remember a time when instant access to the internet, YouTube, tic-toc, and/or snapchat wasn't an immediate go to? How about this, waiting at the railroad tracks, waiting in traffic, sitting in a movie theater before the show with nothing for your mind to do but wander, listen, visit or just be quiet?

Thanksgiving

By Pam Weinreis • 24 Nov, 2023
It is the month set aside for thanks. I am struggling, and I still get turned around. Is my dwelling on the past or fretting over the future keeping me from the present? Is my anxiousness masked by anger? Do I discount this moment?

New Birth

By Pam Weinreis • 27 May, 2023
The warmth of the sunshine does something for our souls. It seems to lift the spirit. Signs of spring are slowly showing up. The Little Missouri River’s running out of its banks. Baby calves scatter the hillsides. Green grass begs to grow. Just days before the Holy Week, our eighth grandchild is born.
