a rescued daughter of a loving Father.

The Lord finds favor in those who give all Him they have, rather than the ones who give up only what they are willing to.

Having faith is hard. Being able to live full heartedly for a God, who we can't even see, can feel so impossible sometimes. It seems so easy to give it all up. Why don't I just give it all up?

Because I believe in the miracles that happened when I accepted Christ into my life. Those are real. The miracles came when I trusted a God that I knew little about. I believed that he could rescue me from the suffering of sin. He dangled a rope in front of me my entire life and I decided to finally take the leap of faith and grab it. God has shown me a new life.

I am forever grateful for my God, my Father.

Then Jesus said to him, " Get up! Pick up your mat and walk." At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.
