Each child of God must ask themselves - Do I still believe...
“Do you believe He loves you; unconditionally—that you are right now
being led by the Holy Spirit—that every tear you shed He bottles —that you are right now in this place, in this very hour, in the perfect will of God?
“Do you believe all things still work together for good to them that love
God—that He hears our prayers, even when we have no audible words to express them, when all seems dark and we feel overwhelmed—when fear lays hold of our mind and soul—when it seems the heavens have been shut and no answer comes?
“Do you still believe He feeds all living things: the fish of the sea,
the cattle, the fowls, all creeping things? Do you still believe He counts every hair on your head—that He takes note of every fallen bird on the face of the earth? Do you truly still believe?
“Do you still believe—even when death comes to your loved ones? Do you still believe that He gives comfort and strength to face even the grave?
“Do you still believe He love you, that He has forgiven you all your past sins, your present sins—that He will forgive all future sins if you rest and trust Him? Do you believe He understands when satan sends his messengers against you to implant lies, doubts, blasphemies, fears, despair?
“Do you still believe you are in the palm of His hand—that you are more
precious than gold to your Savior—that eternal life is your future—that He is still touched by every infirmity and affliction you endure? Do you still believe these things are true?”
Read all of Psalm 103 and ask yourself, “Do I still believe it? Do I still believe it all?”
