Faith As A Crutch

Sometimes it really saddens me to hear that people who believe in God sometimes use their faith as a crutch.

Meaning that instead of working things out on our own and getting the results we leave it up to God and his path which they don't believe can happen.

I for one believe we don't make our own destiny. Others peoples opinions aren't wrong but for me I need God in my life or I would be in the looney bin

What are some of your feelings?

Good morning! I was happy to see this thread this morning. My husband and I were just talking last night about this situation. We are very strong catholics, I put total faith in God and know that he has blessed me in more ways than I can ever imagine, my husband being the biggest of these blessings. However, lately I feel so guilty b/c I feel like I've prayed for a baby for 4 1/2 years + (through trying, infertility treatments, and now adoption) and I keep thinking why isn't this happenning, we're good people.. how come God isn't giving us a baby but all kinds of people who don't deserve to have one,like the 15 some teens in our high school, do have them. Yet I know in my heart God is finding us the perfect blessing. How do you deal with all of these feelings? Like I said, I 100% believe in and put my life in God's hands, that is why it is so disturbing to me to be feeling like this.
