“Faith is the substance of things hoped for

Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) By faith we can keep moving forward.

“Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) By faith we can keep moving forward. By faith we have hope. By faith we believe that something better is around the corner. By faith we know that God is with us in all situations and circumstances. By faith we love because He first loved us. By faith we believe that things can and will improve. By faith we keep putting one foot in front of the other, moment by moment. Faith hopes for the things to come. Sometimes all we need is a little faith, for faith has the complete trust or confidence in someone or something. And what is it that overcomes the world, our faith! For unto us a child is born. Unto us a Savior. Merry Christmas. God Bless. Amen.
