Faith and Trust


Daily Gems
Faith and Trust
---------------------------------------------------
"[Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego] knew that they could trust God--even if things didn't turn out the way they hoped. They knew that faith is more than mental assent, more than an acknowledgment that God lives. Faith is total trust in Him.

"Faith is believing that although we do not understand all things, He does. Faith is knowing that although our power is limited, His is not. Faith in Jesus Christ consists of complete reliance on Him."

Can I add to that? Faith is knowing that no matter what happens you will be taken care in the end.(but sometimes it happens sooner :) )
