What Is Faith?

By faith…

(Hebrews 11:3)

Faith is…

• expecting God to accomplish miracles through my five loaves and two fishes. He can use me.

• rejecting the feeling of panic when things seem out of control. He is in control.

• confidence in God’s faithfulness to me in an uncertain world. He holds the future.

• depending on the fact that God loves me, not on my ability to figure out how or why. He can be trusted.

• thanking God for his gift of emotional health, not assuming it all stems from my ability to cope with stress. He provides.

“…I do believe; help me to overcome my unbelief” (Mark 9:24).
