Your Faith Test

When things are going well for you, it's not too hard to walk by faith. When things are going against you, then your faith is tested. You may be tempted to doubt. Your faith is attacked during the hard days. Don't give way to doubt. Strengthen your faith.

Faith cannot be based upon what you see, but what God says. Faith comes through the promises of the word of God. The sure foundation for your faith is the written word of God in the Bible. Read and meditate upon the promises of God.

Picture a piece of embroidery placed between you and God, with the right side up toward God. You see the loose, frayed ends, but God sees the pattern. If you go only by what your eyes see, it looks like confusion. Believe that God is working according to His pattern in your life.

"For we walk by faith, not by sight."
2 Corinthians 5:7

"Knowing that the testing
of your faith produces patience."
James 1:3
