A question came to my mind as I was studying this past week: what (if it was taken away from me) would make me lose my faith? And I started going over a logical progression of things in my mind. What if I lost my Sportscenter HD (not a real frustration). What if I lost my Internet, my truck, my job (all things that aren't really detrimental to my faith). Then, I asked "What if I lost my wife and daughter?" "What if I lost my country?" "What if I was overtaken by an imperialistic nation that didn't allow me to worship the one, true God openly and freely?"
The question I had to ask myself was simple, but hard to swallow: would my faith be just as founded the second before I lost it all...as it was the second after? Think about it.
