Faith doesn’t quit
But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance. (Romans 8:25 NKJV)
Sometimes problems persist even when you feel you’ve already done all you could, you see no answer, which can be discouraging. In cases like that, God may be testing you to see whether you will continue to trust and believe and thank Him for all the other good things He sends your way, even when it seems He is not answering your prayers about a certain thing.
God loves to see His children’s faith manifested, and He promises to greatly reward those who bravely endure the trying of their faith. If God is working in your life to bring out a special quality, the process may take some time. Lumps of coal aren’t turned into diamonds overnight; so, it is with our lives.
When you think you’ve reached the end of your rope, just hold on a little longer. Patience is often the key that opens the door to God’s blessings, and sometimes we must be content to wait for His answer. While we may expect God to put an end to our problems right now, He may know that later is a better time. God’s timing is impeccable. “He has done all things well.” Trust Him!
Faith is believing. Faith is trusting. Faith doesn’t quit. Faith refuses to call anything impossible. Faith refuses to be robbed of its joy and peace by circumstances or battles. Such faith cannot be defeated. God will always come through for us. [1]
