That is because we cannot store up Grace for the future, otherwise we are no longer walking daily with the Lord. God wants a "real time" relationship with us. We will not be spared from life's difficulties, but suffering is optional. We will not suffer if we have put our trust in God to see us through it.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17103364860587388726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8244979144786760705.post-62896332704154577072011-02-26T09:42:45.237-05:002011-02-26T09:42:45.237-05:00Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to pl...Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. <br /> i.e. - Faith is believing that He Is (He IS the Answer to our every need)and that He is the REWARD when we seek Him. Just like when we seek for a treasure; the reward is to find the treasure. Faith is the action of attentively listening for Him to REVEAL Himself in our every trial. In losing your house, you may hear Him say "I was born in a stable in order to reveal Myself to dispised shepherd and I needed to put you down to touch lives that cannot be touched by those on the top".<br /><br />Molly D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
