what does faith mean to you?

“Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that
something is real even if we do not see it.”  Hebrews 11:1


Faith is the belief that God is real and that God is good.  It is a choice to believe that the one who made it all hasn’t left it all and that he still sends light into the shadows and responds to gestures of faith.

Faith is the belief that God will do what is right.

God says that the more hopeless your circumstances, the more likely, your salvation.  The greater your cares, the more genuine your prayers.  The darker the room, the greater the need for light.

God’s help is near and always available, but it is only given to those who seek it.

    What a beautiful beautiful message and photograph Tracie!! That bible quote just captures it all doesn’t it? My favorite Max quote is: “Faith does not mean God will do what you want. Faith means God will do what is right.”
