Test your Faith, because your Faith will test you .

I cant tell you what you what to believe, even if i did.... would you believe it ? You could say you believe it, and you can act as if you do believe it.

But do you honestly have Faith ?

Faith is more than just words, its more than going by what your told or taught, its more than what you practice. Faith is a belief in something, A belief that's so strong you need no solid evidence to prove it correct, because your gut and your instinct tell you it is right.

Faith is more than the words you say, its the trust in the words you say. Its more than the things you do, it's the meaning to the things we do.

Religion

The ultimate faith one can have, is the faith in their religion.

But can religion be proven? I'm saying it cant.
It cant be proven.

In today's society we don't believe something till we see the evidence or, we don't believe something unless we see it. Every scientific theory is put in experiment to be proven.

So how do we prove the existing of God?

Is their an experiment we can do? How do we find God?

We cant see him, hear him, or feel him.

So How do we know he's real, When we cant physically prove it. ?

Well I can tell you what I believe, and how i would answer these questions-

God speaks through us, his people. What we do and say was made by him. He needs no voice, we are the voice. We are the result of his wishes. He asked for us to be us and we are us. We are proof he has a voice.

We see him, through his world, the world we live in. The sky's, the oceans, the stars, the moon, the things we cant explain. The sights that take our breath away. That's God, That's what he drew out. That's what he made. He is indescribable. That's how we see him.

We feel him, through the emotions we feel. An emotion is not solid, you cant touch it with your hand, you feel it from within, its something from nothing, how is that possible? How do we feel sad and feel happy? Who made these emotion, and how do we come to feel it? Its not something out of the big bang theory or something artificial. God made it, God gave us the ability to do the unbelievable. We can feel things, that aren't there to be seen.

Does that prove God exists? Well that's up to you to decide.

Everyone questions God and religion, some are completely understandable. People ask why are women oppressed? Why do i have to do that? Or wear that? Some people question himself! They'll ask what God would create monster's, and let innocent people get hurt?..

Can i give you the answer you are looking for? Probably not.
Because it's not right that little children are abused, or mothers a murdered, and families left on the streets, no its not right that things like this happen! But God did let it happen. So what does that say? Is God punishing people for no reason, what are his intentions?

I don't think anyone can give you the perfect answer. But i can only use my faith to find an answer to give, because in my faith i believe

My views on Faith ...

Your faith cant be fit around your beliefs, Your beliefs have to fit around your Faith. What do i mean ?
You cant chose to believe in a part of a religion and not the other, you cant because it doesn't work that way. When you find that faith you have to look into it and take your answers. Believe in every part of it, because if you don't, you don't believe in it at all.

So i was asked what kind of God will let an innocent person be abused?

To find my answer i looked within my faith, And i remembered something that's believed in my religion .. .. .. Those who suffer the most on Earth will suffer the least hereafter.

For some of you this wont be a good enough justification but for me it is , my faith has told me what to believe and i believe in this. I believe in Gods reasoning, and i except it. I look at what my religion tells me and i understand it, It strengthens my faith because i see reason in Gods actions.

I see good, in that someone who suffers this pain on the temporary Earth, will be given that mercy in the eternal hereafter.

Everyone questions their faith, I have. But Some of us are scared to ask questions, questions that make it seem like your doubting your religion. You aren't obliged to believe what your told.

God has given us the ability to chose, chose between right and wrong. That's why he created the Devil, he gave us the choice to believe or to not believe. Yes He told you it was right to believe, but he still gave you the choice to not believe. With that He also gave you the ability to question, and to test. So tell me Why are you scared to ask questions ?

Remember we are only scared to ask the questions that we fear the answer of. If you truly believe, you will not fear the answer. Being told to believe is not believing.

So Test your faith, do not be afraid to.
After all isn't your faith testing you everyday?
Aren't we constantly asked to prove our beliefs, by practicing. So why don't you ask your beliefs to prove that they are the beliefs to follow.

We have the right to ask questions,? We have the right to doubt and wonder. Because if we do not attempt to answer these questions or face that doubt, how do we know what we believe in? To not ask, is not believing, it's acting as if you believe. Don't be afraid to open your mouth and ask, after all God knows whats going on in your head : ) So who are you fearing? Your friends, your piers, your family, your priest?

If you have the faith, you will not be afraid to ask, because you know you believe in the answer's your faith gives you. Your beliefs must adjust around your Faith, Your faith cant adjust around your beliefs.

I'm not preaching my faith, I'm asking you to ask yourself if your faith is there?

My superstar friend! :-)

Ok well she asked me for a mention :)

So here's a post on my superstar friend, those of you who read this may be able to work out who i'm talking about. This post is basically about what i love about the person and what i think people can learn from them. If anyone wants a mention let me know :) and i'll do one, but i think i'll pop some of you in here time to time . ..

So the things i love about this girl is, firstly she see's everything the way i do! its crazy! she notices like everything and we seem to agree on 99.9% of things.
She's always there for someone when you need her, i'd call her the mother hen because she brings everyone together, she's the friendliest person ever, even if she doesn't like you she'll still be nice to you ! Which is what makes her so likable.

Something about her that i think everyone can take with them and learn from and follow is that she has dreams and she's not afraid to reach for them, she knows what she wants, she's ambitious but she has such a great belief and confidence in herself that it's inspiring to others. And probably doesn't even realize how inspiring she is.

Allot of people are afraid to do what they love and what they dream of, and often settle for what they think is the achievable the make sense thing to do, and end up depressed and sad, because they never went for the passion they had. But this girl is a people pleaser, yes, but the no.1 person she tries to please is herself, she knows what she wants and always goes for it, whether that be a pair of shoes from a shop or her wildest dream ;) she'll make sure she has what she wants :).

Thats what makes her a superstar! She isn't afraid to reach for the furthest one away. I think everyone can learn from her example and just want to say she's one of the bestest friends to have :).

Ask as many questions as possible . . avoid assumptions

You cant just assume you know the answer to something, you cant assume your right.

Before you start pointing your finger look at your hands and see if their clean

People , we love to blame others most of us won’t want to admit we are in the wrong, most of us will sit and argue and argue to justify themselves to try and prove that they are right. They point the finger, there ready to blame, but never ready to admit. Most of the time you know you’re wrong, you just don't want to accept it, you won’t want to believe it’s your fault, you don't want to feel as if it was your fault.

But it’s wrong, it’s wrong to blame another when you’re at fault too. The only way to move past a situation is to see the situation for what it is. To admit your faults, to repent, to forgive, and to look past. This is the only way to move on

As humans we are equal, no one has the right to blame or to judge another person until they have judged themselves.

Ask yourself the next time you are ready to point the blame, or to judge someone Else's behaviour, are my hands clean? or metaphorically speaking, am i wearing gloves ?

Do not cover your fault. Let them out and they will not burden you.

Remember you cannot hide from the truth.

Attention Seeking

One thing i hate more than anything is an attention seeker, someone who thrives to be at the centre of anything. There overly loud desperate for everyone to look at them, there fake and laugh unnecessary in order to catch the eye of the people around them. There whole mannerism is based around there need and superficiality to be the only thing worth looking at.

There's one word to describe them Fake.

I see no need for these types of people, i pity them. They have an idea that they must put on a facade in order to entertain and attention gain. They talk in voices that aren’t them, they dress in manner to attract attention, and they publicly display themselves on social networks in a way to attract attention. They’re sad.

But the only people sadder are the people that fall into the trap of the attention seeker. The people that are led to believe the attention seeker and give them the attention they desire. These people will one day suffer the consequence in believing in someone who wasn't worth believing in.

Enough said

No one on earth is perfect; we all have our flaws whether it be major or minor.

When we make friends with people, a new friendship can be interesting and fun when you’re getting to know all the good things about someone, but eventually the more you get to know someone the more you find out, and most likely you'll find out things you Don't like, this person might not seem as they were, they’re going to have flaws in their personality, they may be temperamental, anxious, persistent, wary, fearful, annoying, emotional, problematic..

But the good friend the one you can all a friend isn't one that will stop liking you when they find out you’re not perfect and you are cautious, and you are slightly annoying, a good friend is the friend that will like you regardless.

Remember if someone can’t handle you at your worst, they certainly do not deserve you at your best.

A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself.

A friend is one who believes in you when you have ceased to believe in yourself.

A good friend will believe in you, when you don't even believe in yourself.  They won’t lose faith in you, they will support you and help you through any struggle. They try with you to reach your dreams and they smile with you when you reach them.

A friend is one who walks in when others walk out

This quote is pretty much self-explanatory, a lot of us have friends we talk to a lot of us have friends we cry to or simply smile to. But do we know the best of these friends, some will stick by you ... some will walk away.... some will forget you.... and some will always remember you....

The best friend you can have is one that never gives up on you, and no matter if everyone else walks out they'll always be there.

Don't take your good friends for granted, they'll be the ones to catch you when you fall.
