“Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believe?”
(John 11:40, NLT)
Every time you venture out in your life of faith, you will find something in your circumstances that, from a commonsense standpoint, will flatly contradict your faith. But common sense is not faith, and faith is not common sense.
Faith must be tested, because it can only become your intimate possession through conflict. What is challenging your faith right now?
The ultimate thing is confidence in Jesus … Believe steadfastly on Him and everything that challenges you will strengthen your faith.
(from My Utmost For His Highest by Oswald Chambers)

“Believe steadfastly on Him and everything that challenges you will strengthen your faith”. That is so key!
It really is, Elizabeth. May we grow in the very area that our faith is being challenged. Blessings!
