that's my king
Do you want some inspiration? Go and check out the video clip called "That's My King" at www.sermonspice.com. You can check out a preview clip.
This clip reminds me of the awesomeness our my God. I've already shared it with others and it inspired and encouraged them as well.

i don't find faith easy
I envy those people that find it easy to believe. For me the journey of faith is a rocky one. There are moments when I am really unsure and then there are moments I feel certain, but the certain moments are not as often as I would like.
I often cry out to God that he would reveal himself in a sign of some kind, but to date this has not happened.
I hear amazing testimonies of answered prayer from people I respect and believe and yet I still harbour a cynical side.
The part of the bible that most resonates with me is the phrase, "I believe, help my unbelief."
My prayer today is this, "Lord thank you that you hold on to me even in my moments of doubt, help me know you more and more so that my knowing you would encourage others to walk with you as well."

temptation
Temptation can hit out of the blue. Had a situation tonight where I felt like a huge wave of temptation. Decided instead of giving in I would ask for help and so sent a text message to a friend that said, "Feeling tempted, please pray."
As soon as the text message had gone I felt the urgency of the burden leave. Then within minutes my friend rang and prayed with me over the phone.
I now understand a bit more of the truth of sharing our burdens with one another.
At the moment of temptation we have a choice to make, to give in or to reach out. I encourage you to both reach out to a friend and reach up to God, this two way reach is a temptation killer.
