3 Examples To Help Understand Faith
What is faith? Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. In simpler terms, faith is trusting God to do the impossible that He has already promised.
A few practical life applications;
When you are worried, He has promised not to worry and that you trust Him.
When you are sad and burdened, He has promised comfort so you can rest in Him.
When you are in doubt, He has promised you to hold onto Him so He can deliver you in time.
