    Choosing Faith 
    By Alexis A. Goring

    Several months ago, God placed it on my heart to choose faith instead of resorting to fear as I try to handle everything by myself. 

    It's exhausting to think that we are single-handedly responsible for fixing every problem and surviving the curveballs life throws at us. God has been working with me on this concept for a few years, starting on a metro ride home from work. I was silently worrying about how I would survive a situation that was troubling my heart, and as I looked out the window at the scenery and setting sun, God spoke to me with these words, "You act like you don't have a God."

    Mic drop! God was exactly right! I was acting like an orphan when I'm a princess of the Eternal King. All who follow Jesus Christ learn that we are children of God, adopted into His Royal Family when we confess our faith and give our hearts to Him. Living for God isn't easy, but it's worth it. Following Christ doesn't mean that all of our problems and pain disappear. However, God walks with us through all of our trials and He helps us survive tribulations. Jesus Christ said in John 16:33 (NIV), "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

    Often, we become overwhelmed with the woes of this sin-filled world and feel weighed down by our own personal pain. It's a daily struggle for me, but I am reminded to keep my focus on Heaven because that's our true home as believers in God. The Bible says that we are only passing through this world. We are strangers here because our citizenship is in Heaven (Hebrews 11:13-15,1 Peter 2:11).

    Is it Really a Sin to Be Rich?
     
    Candice Lucey

    This is how sin enters — when wealth becomes a person's treasure and when riches become the idol one worships and act as if there is never enough. "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21).
