Lives of Faith in the Hundred-Acre-Wood of God’s Will

Richard Forbes
Christian, Daily Devotional, Bible Stories

How do our lives fit together with our faith? Do our lives contain our faith, or does our faith contain our lives? The answer to this question dictates how we will approach the Holy Spirit, and even more than that, what our perception of faith actually is. Will there be joy flowing from our faith, or will we study its details looking for perfection, and fail? Perhaps we have solved this mystery... so that by living within our faith we find perfection and joy through Jesus alone. We are imperfect yet live encapsulated within the perfect sacrifice of Christ, and surrounded by grace and the will of God.

Believe Without Doubt, and Testify

Today I am going to share an email with you that I wrote several years ago (on March 5, 2016). I wrote it to a very dear friend, and brother in Christ, with whom I was reading a devotional book each day. I wrote this daily message just before I started sharing my devotionals beyond family and a few very close friends. Then, as he often did, my friend Chuck wrote me a note in return, and I am almost reluctantly sharing it with you because of its personal nature. However, it demonstrates the power of our testimony, and the impact it has on those around us… believers and unbelievers alike.
