Do You Got Faith? NeedEncouragement.com

Please contact us if you have questions or if you need some encouragement.

Got faith? It’s a question that we all need to ask ourselves with an open heart and mind. As I reflect on my journey, I am reminded of the unwavering faith I had in my parents when I was little. They were my pillars, providing me with food, shelter, and clothing – instilling in me a sense of security and trust. However, as we grow older and face life’s challenges, our perception of faith inevitably evolves. Doubts may arise, questioning the very core of our beliefs. In those moments, it is crucial to take a step back from the noise and remember the countless ways God has already worked in our lives.

 

Those thoughts trying to tempt us into doubt are not from Him; they are from the evil one, Satan himself who seeks to shake our foundation. But let us always bear in mind that according to the Bible’s teachings found in Revelation’s final chapter – God emerges victorious while Satan is defeated. This truth is deeply within me now more than ever before – my real trust lies with faith in God alone. For He is not just merely a creator but also the sustainer of life itself. Every breath we take is evidence of His hand at work within us. And while there may be other aspects where we exercise faith – like sitting on a chair we’ve never sat on before, we do not test the chair, we simply sit down on it exercising faith that it will hold us – having unwavering faith in God comes through having an intimate relationship with Him through the Holy Spirit. ~ Bill Greguska

Hebrews 11:1  Now, faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

What Does Your Faith Look Like?


Faith Is Taking The First Step… Even When You Don’t See The Whole Staircase. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

Ask yourself, “Do you have stronger faith than a year ago?” God tells us in the Bible: “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20

Do you think your faith increases because you become more aware of God’s blessings? Trust that God has a plan for your life, an idea not to harm you but to provide you with hope. Stronger faith starts with childlike faith. When you stop at a red light, and the light turns green, you have faith that the drivers who now have a red light will stop.

My faith in God has been a blessing and given me a new life in Christ; it can help you too! Thankfully, God miraculously changed my outlook on life and changed me as a person. Although I still have problems with God in my life, I can now lean on Him for guidance through His word and guidance through God’s word and prayer. God put wise good people in my life, such as Ron and Sue Sauer, my mom, and others who have encouraged me through the struggles that I have had. We all can feel sad or depressed, but remember what happens when we put our hope in the Lord! In my attempt to pay it forward, I have tried to point people to God’s love via this website, so people like you can also find similar types of encouragement I needed in the past that you might need today.

 


Do You Got Faith But Want It To Increase?


 

People Who Helped Point Me To Jesus Christ!Ron and Sue Sauer! NeedEncouragement.com

Pastor Ron Sauer and Sister Sue Sauer are two people who tried to jump-start my dying marriage, which ended up jump-starting a much stronger faith in God in my life! Pastor Ron and Sue Sauer did all they could do to help keep my marriage together. Until my ex decided she wanted to rediscover her life and divorced me. Some great things happened when Pastor Ron was our pastor at the Redeemer Evangelical Free Church in 2003.

 

Pastor Ron and Sue poured a lot of time and a lot of wisdom into me. Their help was critical during this challenging time in my life. I did what they told me I needed to do. My ex was not on the same page, making reconciling our marriage virtually impossible. After the divorce in 2007, Sue kept in touch with me, pointing me to Jesus and helping me get my life back on track via emails, texts regularly, and phone calls once in a while. My faith became stronger; I communicated with Sue because she always pointed me to Jesus Christ and his teaching through his word. Sue is a very wise, humble Christian woman.

 

 

Ron and Sue Pointed Me To Jesus And Got Me Back On Track!Stronger Faith Starts Here! NeedEncouragement.com

After the divorce in 2007, Sue kept in touch with me, leading me to Jesus and helping me get my life back on track via emails, texts regularly, and phone calls once in a while. I believe God sent that Sue Sauer to me. I say this because of how much time and energy she poured into helping me keep my marriage alive and then helping me get back on my feelings after the separation and divorce.

 

I still remember asking Ron and Sue, “What can I give you, or what can I do for you for all the help you have given me?” They told me, “All they wanted me to do was to encourage others with the encouragement that I have received from Christ.”  2 Corinthians 1:3-4 That is when I felt God put it on my heart to start a phone ministry. I called it the Encouragement Help Line, and then in 2007, I began NeedEncouragement.com. This would not have happened if Pastor Ron and Sue had not told me to encourage others. Otherwise, I would have never started this website, most likely.

 

 

 

Are You Doubting Your Faith?


 

Becoming Stronger

(This section is from The Book I wrote)

Lord, I am not created to be a Lone Ranger. I trust all things will come to me in your time, and that you want to make me the person you intend me to be. Sometimes, though, because you give me free will, my actions alter what you have planned for me. Please don’t let me run away from the things you use to draw me to you, but help me embrace them as I continue to read your word, worship, and enjoy fellowship with other believers. Help me set aside time each day for these things. To become stronger, I need you and my Christian brothers and sisters.

Help me to come to you first thing each day, Lord, not to wait to seek you until all else fails. Help me lean on your word as though my life depended on it, because it does! Remind my spirit that my strength comes from you, not from me.

I am thankful that I have grown spiritually since I accepted your invitation to be my Lord and Savior. This encourages me to continue growing stronger in your word. I pray for your help to finish the race called life in a powerful way, giving you honor and praise for everything I say and do. Show me clearly that all good things come from you. Knowing that truth, help me keep my eyes on you, Lord, at all times.

Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. ~ John F. Kennedy
