What Do You Put Your Faith Into…?

So I was just trying to write another note before this one, but of course my stupid computer froze and the note didn’t post, so that was really annoying for me. But then it gave me another idea for another note. So I have been thinking a lot this past year, and I know that, that might come as a shock to you, but ya. Anyways I have been thinking a lot this past year about, well about lots of stuff, how to be a better person, how to build unity between not specific churches but the church in general, and a lot more stuff. But one thing that fits really well with what just happened to me with my computer is one thing that backs up my recent thoughts of…what do we as humans put our faith into? (hence the title ‘what do you put your faith into…?’) but ya I have been realizing more and more that we as humans put so much faith into technology and its unbelievable how much we do and don’t even think about it. Today I woke up went on the computer before I left to work, did I think about the computer not working for me…no because I had faith in the computer that it would work. But the thing is technology is truly brilliant, but it doesn’t always work. I had just finished writing that note and it took me about a good 20 minutes, and I was happy with the out come but then I clicked ‘Post’ and hey, what do you know, my computer froze. We put so much faith into technology it just amazes me. Another example a couple months ago I was visiting my brother and I went up the elevator to go to his room, I went in, clicked the floor number, and there I went, but the thing is I didn’t even stop to think that “this thing may not bring me to where I want to go”. That elevator could’ve stopped and I could’ve been stuck for a very long time. While I am writing this I really hope that my stupid computer doesn’t freeze again. One thing that I have thought about is that today’s technology it all costs money, and for faster and more convenience, it costs even more money. The things we buy, we have faith that it will work for us. The thing is we can spend so much money and put so much faith into having these things, but for me, I do know that I do depend to much on technology and I shouldn’t have to. With Jesus, I have faith in him that he will provide me with all I need in life, sometimes we doubt God because it feels like he doesn’t answer our prayers when we don’t get what we want, but that is us being impatient and us not realizing that God will provide in his time, not our rushing/impatient time. If we were to write down all the things that we Need in life and then another list of all the things we Want in life, it would come down to us having so many Wants and not as many Needs as we first thought. For me I have always though I needed a faster computer, but the thing is I don’t really need a fast computer, it would be nice, but I don’t need it, its more of a want in my life. For me I have never been as happy as I have been this past year, because I have chosen to let Jesus work in my life and take control of me, and I’m not here to try to make my self sound like such an amazing person and try to make it seem like I am better then you, because trust me…I’m not. We are all the same, we are all sinners. But Jesus still loves us all so very much. And my hope and prayer is that who ever actually takes time to read it down to this part, that I pray that you put your faith into Jesus, because trust me…you wont be sorry for it. My Relationship with Jesus is the best thing in my life. I know that I do jump around to subject to subject but that’s what just was on my mind, I hope that there was some sort of connection between this for you. I hope that you enjoyed what I had to say, if you didn’t like what I had to say or didn’t agree with what I had to say, I just want you to know that I didn’t mean for this to offend anyone, this was just one of the many thoughts that I have had, and things in my life that are important to me, so I am sorry incase I offended anyone from this. May you let God work in your lives and may you walk in the footsteps of Jesus.God Loves You In Him;Jordan Jones
