I Wish I Had That Sort Of Faith
Every now and then we meet people who have extraordinary qualities. Whether it be great insight into the world or a great capacity to care for others.
As a Christian I am often most inspired by great people of faith. Usually they are people of prayer, patience, conviction and hope. They are people who are prepared to take risks and step out in faith.
Such people have learned to trust God in most situations. You can’t buy faith like that and it doesn’t just come about by reading stories about great people of the past.
Great faith is built by trusting God in the important issues of life. God makes great promises about our lives but so often we choose to do things our way not His way. Faith grows as we see God work, keeping promises and answering prayer. If we don’t ask Him or rely on Him there is no room in our life for Him to work.
