In order to deepen our faith, we need to exercise it!

It is only by faith that we can acknowledge and accept that our Father has allowed everything that is happening in our world, including all of the circumstances in our lives and all that has ever happened to us. He allows all of it for His good purposes, as well as for our own.

Our acknowledgement of this truth, even though we frequently can’t understand His purpose, exercises, deepens and strengthens our faith. 

Without faith, it is impossible to have a relationship with God. Without faith, it is impossible to please Him.

God’s Word says that we will be rewarded for our faith! A major part of the reward is true contentment, even in the unstable world in which we live.

Faith enables us to be in a trusting relationship with God despite our troubles and the power of faith can even move mountains (Mark 11:23).

I love this quote by W. Graham Scroggie, “Sight is worldly wisdom, but faith is heavenly wisdom”.

We need to live by faith, not by sight!

How is your faith these days? Do you have faith in God despite all the craziness in the world?
