Unshakable

The question arose to me today, "what does it mean to be unshakable in faith?"

For a while I was not entirely certain, then the ladies in the office next to me made a comment that totally cleared it up in my mind. :)

You know that point in life when you believe something to firmly that nothing can shake it? Like when you were little and you were totally convinced that Superman and the Care Bears were really alive and just hiding from you? Nothing anybody said to you would change that.

Or when you found a hobby which you thoroughly enjoyed and tried to convince everyone around you that it was the best thing to do in the whole world? Nothing anybody else said could sway you.

Or when you adapted a new "health" program and you were entirely convinced that blueberries were the best thing you could possibly eat, or whole wheat is the only flour/wheat to eat, or that running or weightlifting is the best way to be healthy? No matter what anyone else says, or tries to convince you, you still believe that your way is the best.

Seems to me we tend to be that firm and unshakable in many aspects of life, yet why is it so difficult for us to be that firm with our religion? With the one thing that is not based at all on opinion, but is entirely truth?

Probably because that is the one thing Satan is trying his hardest to pull us away from.
That is the one thing he fears most, so he tries to put fear into us.

The question then, is do you let him?
