Faith

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

     Faith is a funny thing.  Most people have some form or another of faith, whether in money, people, jobs, whatever.  The thing about having faith in these things is that you will surely be let down.  Money, jobs, and people can be gone in an instant.  My faith is in Jesus Christ alone. 
     Ever since I made my intentions known to do this blog during September, I have been getting a huge lesson in faith.  The fiery darts have been all around me this past week.  I have been attacked, materially, physically, spiritually, and emotionally.  It has made my resolve even stronger. I am wholly dependent on Christ.
     Whatever sruggle you are facing, whether it be a sick family member, bills, family problems, whatever, take a few minutes each day during the month of September to ask someone to join us here.  I will try my best to give you something that will be an inspiration.  Keep me, and my family,  in your prayers also, as I know that we will be under attack until this journey is completed.  Tomorrow is day one.  Will you be "One"?
