A Crowned Thorn

What is the value of a thorn in our Christian journey? First, we must identify what a thorn is. According to the Dictionary one definition describes a thorn as “a source of continual annoyance or trouble”. A thorn can cause an immediate pain from its puncture or it can cause constant irritation and distress. Thorns that appear as a source of trouble are usually not welcomed companions on our daily quest. But the thorns we encounter are useful despite their irritations and disruptions. Thorns come to challenge and to strengthen your faith, your character, and your witness as a child of God. Thorns are the mechanism from which you gain more than you lose. Thorns are the pathway to reaching higher heights and deeper depths of sanctification and glory. With each thorn that attaches itself to your life, you become more and more like Christ.

Have Faith In Your Faith

Devotional Titled Have Faith In Your Faith

Your faith walk had to have a beginning. So, how did your walk of faith begin? Was it a quiet draw or an insatiable drive to search and find the One your soul longs for? However, your journey began. It started with a need and that need was activated by faith. Faith that we were made for more and could experience more. That there is something to be found and worth the effort of finding.

We are relational beings. God did not design us to live without the companionship of others and without the companionship of a divine father. We can ignore the void of not having our spiritual needs tended to. One can regulate this innate need and live a life never having experienced it. But if you are a soul that is seeking and willing to embrace it, you will need your faith to propel you forward.

Once you have taken the leap of faith, it is upon faith that you continuously rely. Trusting in yourself in that you have chosen wisely to have faith in your need for faith. That by having faith to seek God's hand and His companionship makes you wise. Filling that spiritual need by venturing to learn how to trust and believe on and in Him daily. Growing in your ability to live, move, and have your being fully connected and divinely inspired, all because you had the courage and the desire to live a life of faith.

So, don't discard the faith that led you to seek Him, instead, cling to this faith so that you can remain by His side. Continue to pursue and grow in the faith that has helped birth the you, you are today and the things you have yet to accomplish. The power of faith and the continuous belief in what faith can produce in and for you is a gift to cherish. Your faith has brought you this far, believe in it to carry you on.
