God brings tests into your life because your faith in Him--your belief that He is in control and that He is good--can be proved only in times when life is hard.

By your grace, I will not despair. I believe that I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

You'll face overwhelming odds; you'll be incredibly outnumbered. Fear would be your natural inclination. But keep in mind, God is with you.

Too many times we're looking for ways to get around deep waters and dangerous fires, rather than through them. Has this ever been your experience?

When you come to the place where you can't do anything else, you must stand still and believe... When you can't do anything, let God do it all.

Jesus washing the disciples feet is the most supreme act of humility in all of God’s word.

Doubt is a lack of confidence or assurance that God will keep his promises. Faith is an active confidence that God's promises are always true.
