We all struggle with our faith from time to time. True faith is coming to a belief in Jesus Christ like a child would. I'm sure you've heard of the story of 2 5 year olds arguing over who's dad is bigger, stronger, etc. The 5 year olds have complete rock solid faith in their fathers, that they can do anything. I know, because I was in one of those arguments back in the day. To have that same kind of no doubt in your mind and heart kind of belief is what true faith in Christ is made of.
We all start out as little ones, but milk can starve us....then, we need the meat of the Word. And then we do have to learn discipline...tell the flesh to shut up and sit down...your sister in Christ
Not for me. I feel I've lived a righteous life and have everything I need. Everything I want is another matter. I could have more of what I want but pass on it in the interest of peace with others.

"Making it" is whatever gives you peace of mind.
What is peace of mind? Is it attainable as a permanent state? Or do questions always continue to nag at it?
It is not a race you can win or lose. More like spinning plates. Good until it is not. Not until it is good.
