Mar 05,2002 How do you all do it? How do you grow in faith? I find myself thinking all these stupid thoughts... like I know(or have been told anyway) that the devil attacks new believers. So I'm afraid (I think) for my faith to grow, because I'm worried what will happen to me/my family, etc.. Now I KNOW this is totally irrational thinking, but I can't get passed it. I'm afraid that if I start becoming a stronger Christian that something bad would happen because satan would want to rock my faith. Something like me or dh losing our job, one of the kids getting sick, etc... So how do you do it? I know the main answer is PRAY, and believe me, I've been doing that. But I still haven't been able to get passed it. So any words of wisdom or advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'm very open to your prayers as well ;) Thanks everyone!!!
