Am I Righteous?
Scripture: Romans 1: [17] For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”
Observation: I seem to worry a lot of the time and that is the opposite of faith. Faith is the assurance of things hoped for and the confidence of things not seen. If I was sure I wouldn’t be so afraid each day. My mind doesn’t seem to stop I can’t even spend a couple of moments alone with God in prayer without thinking of something else. If I lived by faith I would live day by day in confidence that God is looking over me and it wouldn’t matter what happened because I would know God is in control.
Application: I need to give my burdens to God and trust Him with this life that He gave me. I belong to God and that I’m sure of so I have nothing to worry about. I need to stop worrying and have faith and continue to pray to God to make sure I stay on the path that He has chosen for me.
Prayer: Heavenly father I need you to guide me. Please increase my faith and show me how to live this life as a righteous man, a man that would please you each day I man you would be proud of. I love you Father help me each day to glorify you.
