Last weekend, I lost my faith for a bit. Although God had shown that he was always here and will always be here for me multiple times and answered my prayers... I started stressing and got frustrated with church. I didn't get any of it, the bible was even more confusing. I was considering on quitting. Quitting on our father. Before i made my final decision, I called my sister and she lifted up my spirit, and my faith was once again with me! I stayed on the phone with her for about an hour, asking her questions, and everything was good. About 10 minutes after we hung up, i got a call that my dad had just gotten arrested. At that instance, i though to myself.. I could be really pissed off right now, at the whole world if I wanted to be, i could cry, go depressed. But instead I laughed. I knew it was the devil trying to bring me down, because I had just restored my faith with my heavenly father. My dad is innocent, and they've everything misunderstood. My dad has a huge heart, he did some cosigning on something for his friend, and it just got into a big ball of a mess. The bail out money is $80,000. We haven't paid the rent in 2 months. Things have always been hard for me, but i believe it all was so i could have strength for things that are going be coming on my walk. I have faith, i truly do... I have that we are not going to have to pay once cent for my father's bail out, that somehow will pay for the rent, the we won;t be evicted, and that maybe my dad could meet someone in jail, someone who will tell him about Jesus and god, so he could finally open up his heart to God. Please, have faith with me. I know our father can do the impossible, and he will do this for me.
I would also like if you guys could pray for me. I need strength, strength for my mother... she is devastated with the news. SI feel as if she has no faith almost. I'm hoping deep inside she does and that I am wrong about that. I need to be strong for my father. I also would want patience, patience for the time i wont be able to talk to my father, i know i'm going to be anxious, but i was to be understanding. I don't want to be angry with my dad when he comes out. I want to be loving ad supportive. I want to have the patience with him so i could tell him the gospel once more. I know my dad is going to be saved just as much as how i believe my mother will be and my brother in law. I want to be strong for others who come me, for questions about God. I NEED to have knowledge. The knowledge to remember things that have happened to me, remember verses, remember names. and lastly, find out who i am. And why am i hear.. i want to find out my calling.
