Faith in God is an essential part of being truly happy. It is about stepping with certainty into the future. It is an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God (quoted from the Amplified Bible). Many people believe that their future is in their own hands – as long as they have enough money they will be able to handle anything that may come their way in the future. This works for them until they realize their mistake.
Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.
Saint Augustine
Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.
Martin Luther
Trust in the almighty God. The Bible is a record of personal encounters over centuries that people had with God and reflects and reveals His character and the experiences they had in a close relationship with Him. Through reading the Bible one can learn a lot about God and what to expect of Him and what He expects of us. He is unchanging and therefore you can expect to have the same relationship with Him in your own life and circumstances. He is still as trustworthy as He had been for thousands of years.
If you need all the answers to trust God, you are not really trusting God.
David McGee
You cannot trust God if you do not know Him. Learn about Him by reading the Bible. Spend time with Him even if you only take 10 minutes a day in a quiet place to sit with Him and share what is in your heart with Him. Start by trusting God for the small things and over time your faith will develop to trust Him for bigger things.
Trusting God means looking beyond what we can see to what God sees.
Charles Stanley
Jesus said that even a faith as small as a mustard seed can move a mountain. The apostle Peter’s imperfect faith still enabled him to walk on water. I can personally attest to the most amazing and mind-boggling faith experiences in my own life. Faith in God is much more worth than just trying – you will find it indispensable. Start today!
