Faith...

I love these definitions and descriptions of faith. They have been a help to me. There are times when I can not see God working. I can't see God answering my prayers. I can't see how a promise can be true in my life. I can't see how a trial can be good for me, and yet God has promised that it will work together for my good.
Because I can't SEE, I start to doubt. But I need faith. Faith to believe that God does hear my prayers. Faith to believe that all things do work together for my good. Faith to believe that all God's promises are true.


Faith is seeing as an actual fact that God has said that this thing shall come to pass, and that it is true, and then rejoicing to know that it is true, and just resting because God has said it.

Faith says not, "I see that it is good for me, so God must have sent it," but "God sent it, so it must be good for me."

Faith, walking in the dark with God, only prays Him to clasp its hand more closely.
