Is my faith in God or what I believe God will do?
Sometimes my faith is only a result of my hope that God can and will accomplish great things. That is only a belief in what he does or is capable of, not a trust in who he is.
What is the difference?
Faith doesn’t just believe that he can heal the sick; it trusts that he can work through the illness or the healing.
Faith isn’t focused on the here and now, but trusts that God sees the big picture.
I invite you to put your faith in God himself, not just in what he can do. Take a moment to reflect on the difference, especially in light of these verses from Hebrews 11.
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. 39 These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised, 40 since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
