There are times in life, when life gets the best of us. Sometimes it seems like no matter how hard we strive to do the right thing, the wrong things seem to happen. It is in those times we need to take a step back and let US get out of the way. We tend to do things in our own strength too many times. My Pastor said the other night, people sometimes walk with the Lord out of experience and not faith. Meaning this, if you have walked with the Lord a long time, it becomes a ritual, you know you are a Christian, but the dependency you once had on God is not the same. You are now walking with God from being with Him so long (experience) it is what you are suppose to do. Instead of walking with Him out of faith, like you did when you first came to know Him. We need to get back to trusting God again, not just doing it because it is a habit. It is a good habit, but there has to be FAITH, because without faith, it is impossible to please him.
