Faith in Faith is no Faith at All

Faith in faith is no faith at all.

Years ago when I was a new believer, I questioned whether or not I lacked faith because so many people around me were looking for big miracles that were undeniably the working of God.

As I grew in the Lord He showed me that looking for the "big" miracles was actually lack of faith, so many look for this because they need something to see to maintain their faith, their faith is based on what they can see, which is not faith at all, but doubt.

Those who walk by faith need nothing more than knowing Who Christ is and that He will work in their lives as He sees fit. Faith is not faith if it requires sight.

Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."

Often people place their faith in faith rather than in Christ. They believe if they just muster up enough faith then they are spiritual.

God says the opposite, He says to believe, after that we can leave all the rest to Him, knowing that He is in control even when we think we can't see anything happening.
