It is often not an easy thing to simply stand on your Faith. A lot of times your situations and circumstances may be in direct conflict with what you are believing for. That does not make your stand of Faith any less real. Something deep on the inside of you wells up and defies your circumstances; I like to call it Holy Ghost Guts.
It is incredible when a believer develops the Holy Ghost Guts to stand firm. When you have done all that you can do, all that is left is to stand. Believe the Lord and stand.
The stand of Faith never claims to be easy, but the victories that you gain when standing in your Faith will mold you, and shape you into a reflection of Christ. It is those victories that we look back on to make us realize that what we may currently be walking through is simply another opportunity for God to show his Goodness and Mercy.
Stand Firm,
Doug
