Corinthians 2:2 - I determined to know Jesus Christ

2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit of power
5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

It is so difficult to let go. Life is always changing; things never stay the same for very long. Yet so often, it is much easier to cling to the way things were rather than look forward to the way things could be. Why is that? Why is it so difficult to put trust and faith in the Lord? Why is it so much easier to put our faith in the "wisdom of men?"

Having faith means trusting in the Lord's plan for us. It means allowing the Lord to work the miracles in our life that He knows we need. It means doing all in our power to align our wills with His will, regardless of whether His will includes our desires. It's not an easy thing to master, but hey, practice makes perfect, right?
