My Faith and His

In recent discussions, I have learned a lot about faith. I've been reminded of the revelation, the moment or process of acknowledgement, where we finally find ourselves saying, "I believe". I'm reminded of the first statement of faith I ever made. The power of the moment, so strong, yet passed and gone. There is, to me, a greater statement of faith, however.

In meeting many new friends lately, I've had a chance to recount the events of my life, or my "walk". As I share my story, my "testimony", I'm reminded of the greater revelation that I seem to have more often than not. I'm reminded of its importance, its significant nature. It is not the statement that says, "I believe in you, God" but the statement that says, "God, you believe in me!"

I see now what has shaped so much of my life is not the revelation that God is so big, but that I am so big to Him. His love shapes me, daily. His belief in my abilities, my talents, my strengths, my potential fuels me. I am nothing without Him, but with Him, He reminds me of everything I was made to be.

Ask God what He thinks of you.
