Don’t exhaust yourself trying to have “big faith” as if it’s a “thing” you yourself manufacture. Faith is not something you strive to attain in order to please God.
FAITH is a PERSON. JESUS IS your FAITH. He is the Initiator and Completer of your trusting. He is the only One who is forever Faithful. And He is yours.
When you are hearing the Truth about Jesus — His finished work, His redeeming love, His forgiveness, His righteousness given to you as a gift, His scandalous grace, His tender mercies, His healing touch, His endless supply and His resurrection life in you — you will effortlessly believe and He will see your faith.
Every day, ask for a fresh revelation of Who He IS, not what you can do “for” Him. He wants us to see Him in His Word, to behold His smile, to perceive His presence and to rely on His unearned favor in our lives. When you see Him, you see your loving Father. When you see His goodness, He sees your belief.
Today, don’t be occupied with self. Just be occupied with Jesus and REST in His love as you let go and let Him believe perfectly on your behalf. Feed on His faithfulness and abide in His devotion to YOU…and HE will bring it to pass.
Resting In His Love,
Annalee Reyes
