Declaration of Dependence
As a Christian we say that we live by faith and not by sight. But do we really understand what Faith means? Do we fully understand what Faith has to do with our lives? Well actually it is one of the most important things in our lives. The Bible says that only three things will remain after all have passed: faith, hope, and love. (1 Corinthians 13:13).
Most Christians of today have a common misunderstanding about Jesus’ role in our lives. Most of us think that God is only there to help us when we need Him for something we can’t handle on our own. After the trials and the problems, when we can stand on our own feet again, we begin to depend on our own abilities once more. But this is not how God works. He wants us to depend on Him completely for everything. Matthew 6:33 says, “Seek first the kingdom of god and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you as well.â€
