Faith Test

After committing my need to God, if I can come away with no sadness, pain or anxiety in my heart, I have prayed the prayer of faith. If I pray and then still carry my burden, I know that my faith was not in practice. ~slight paraphrase from Streams in the Desert

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ. ~Romans 10:17

    Thanks Vee, your quote from Streams in the Desert was just for me today. My prayers must have been ones of faith as I am not sad or anxious about the situation. I am resting in peace. Thanks for the heart lift! Have restful Sunday!

    Wish that I knew your name, Couture de Papier as it seems so impersonal to call you by your blog name (your blog is a very beautiful one, by the way). I've been circling around your comment for a while now wondering how best to respond. I'm not even sure that you asked a question, but this is my response for what precious little it is worth. We can always trust people to be human; we can always trust the Lord to provide. That's all I know. I am so sorry that you experienced such loss in the middle of being very ill. It certainly doesn't seem fair or right. How have you been coming to terms with it?
