How should I have faith in...?

There were two brothers in Toronto who bought lottery tickets that ended up being misprinted. One of the brothers was quoted as saying, "How should I have faith in them when they're making these kings of errors?"
I find it amazing that people think that they should have faith in the lottery commission but will question what God is doing in the world.
The brother went on to say, "You kind of lose faith in the system."
There are many people who have put their faith in the wrong thing, or even in the right thing for the wrong reason, find themselves losing faith. If we believe God for the wrong reason we too can find ourselves losing our faith.
When we look at the world and see what is going on we may ask the question, "What in the world are you doing God?" God says, "If I told you you wouldn't believe it so learn to live by faith."
We cry out for another awaking and God raises up a Russel or a Joseph Smith. What are you doing God? But He remains silent because we wouldn't believe it if He told us.

P.S. Happy birthday son. May the God of peace be your peace. Have a wonderful day. Love dad.
