“The righteous shall live by faith”.

In order to live you need to believe and trust and that is faith.
Consciously or unconsciously we believe in something or in someone.
Our health depends on what we chose to believe and trust.
“A man reaps what he sows”.

Like in business your success is in direct proportion to your choice and trust.
They do great harm to their fellow men those who keep not their word that practically speaking are liars or deceivers. Break of trust aims against the foundation of every relation.

If you keep building on a broken foundation you will live to regret it.

The fall of man is traced to the trust and the deception in the words of a deceiver and the father of lies in disguise.

God is Trustworthy and he demands trust as his right.
Not to trust God is not an option but and open insult to God.

The crime of the faithless is more a crime against himself than against God.
Whether a man believes in God or not it does not affect God in the least bit, but to men it is a self inflicted wound of the worse kind. Desertion is bad but self deception is worse.

Apart of trustworthy, God is love and beauty.
Not to trust God is to be ashamed of God and he in turn will also be ashamed of those who were ashamed of him and sought not to be one in agreement and trust with him.

God will not have as innocent those who have rejected him in the person of his Son Jesus.

Jesus said that he will be ashamed of then in front of God and his holy angels.
What is the gain in trusting shadows and ignoring reality?
Idolatry is believing in the worthless instead of the trustworthy God creator of Heaven and Earth.
Wicked people question God and his judgments as “too harsh and too long.”
What do they care if there is no God for them?
To such unbelievers it is also hypocrisy to speak or judge the God they affirm not to believe.

In sharp contrast the believer who has put his trust in the word of God as a child is in the will of God and securely in alignment and oneness with God.
Therefore Eternity will not be long enough for him to praise God for such a great and infinite salvation.

“ How can it be that you my God
should have love and died for me?” 
All is mine by faith alone and that not of myself but even faith is a gift of God.
I have much to be proud of our beautiful, trustworthy, good and loving God that he can love me as he does.

All my writings are a feeble boasting of the love of God in Jesus.

He loves me! ...yes ...yes ...yes.
That I know and that I testify as a witness of the love of God the Father in Jesus by the Power of the Holy Spirit.
I know I am alive and I live and trust by faith in a childlike manner and I am more than happy that I wish all would know what I know in the way I know and also live by faith.
“The righteous shall live by faith” but if they trust not God, they will be consumed by the word he had spoken.

It is a horrible thing not to trust is God.
What is amazing about faith is that the righteous needs just as much to be found worth of trust that to him trust is like water to a plant.
The most painful wound inflicted to a righteous man is the wound of disbelief.
Nothing hurts him most than to be seen as a deceiver being him an innocent man.

The spirit of the man is quenched as when a delicate flower is cut off only to be stepped upon.
Since trust is a spiritual matter, it is the Holy Spirit of God the one who suffers and Jesus sternly warns that the offenses against the Holy Spirit are not and will not be forgiven in this life and the next life.
The righteous shall live by faith dispensing trust and consuming trust.
The unrighteous shall died in disbelief dispensing and consuming disbelief.

Believe like a child for without faith it is not possible to please God.
Faith is the victory that overcomes the world.
As a witness of Jesus
I live by faith and I love to believe the incredible, see the invisible and do the impossible.
Life could not get any better for me but in Heaven.

Thank you Lord for the gift of faith in Christ Jesus our Lord.

PS. These are my First Thoughts of the morning in Tacoma Washington where I have come to meet my last granddaughter Aaliyah Kay from Caleb and Kelly.

I am as clean as I can and wanted to be ready also in my mind and heart just right before I lay my eyes of her and bless her in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit.
