The Faithful

The life of the faithful is very rewarding, it is a position of honor and respect, the reason why I say this is not because I am honored by people, but because I am honored by God everyday.
Simply being in the presence of God is all the honor and respect I need, now the problem is, for some reason that is not enough for the leaders around us.

Many leaders and pastors do not value the words of the faithful, the words that are given by God to speak, because of the Earthly standards that have been set in place we are required to have riches and fame in order to be listened to, or respected by our piers.

God understands our desire to be respected and honored by our piers, but tells us, what good is it to gain the World and sacrifice your soul in the process? Sure many things can be gained on Earth, but only those who truly hear the voice of God will gain entrance into his kingdom, the thing is many of us that truly serve God will never receive the respect and honor from our piers because we do not play by the rules of man.

God and his people simply serve in the capacity of servants, nothing more. It doesn't matter what tile you have even if it is on a certificate, God does not value those things. God teaches us that the best we can do is to be the servant of servants. This means to help those who are servants to God as well and simply to remember that we are above nobody.

You can be a priest, pope, president or pastor it does not matter to God, to him these are simply titles to have. If you gain such an impressive title it is meant as a platform. You are meant to use your platform as a way to serve others. God places everyone who is faithful in their positions that they have, so that we can serve at the best capacity for who we are inside.

And just because things may get hard or even unbearable, know that God is always there watching out for you, and you will get out of the hard times, because no matter how bad it gets. God's plans are not to harm you but to prosper you. He has your reward in heaven and as long as you believe in him you will have access to that reward when it is time.

The life of the faithful is hard at times, but God says that his burden is easy and his yolk is light. God asks very little of us, the only problems we have are the one that the enemy throws at us. However God has made us mightier than anything that could possibly be thrown at us, as long as we remain faithful.

I may seem like I am rambling a little but that's because I am trying to get this word across, it is important you understand that Faith is already within everyone, it is a matter of simply maintaining it with the simple understanding that God is with us, he Loves us and that is all we need to live.
