Faith in God is not wishing He would do something, it is more than a wing and a prayer. Faith in God is trustful and waiting we a hopeful patience when nothing makes sense, when everything is dark, when there seems to be no way things will work out. This kind of faith places its confidence in God's goodness, even though everything in life seems to shout to the contrary.
Faith gives us hope, even the hope of glory. We have a blessed assurance to His promises. God takes our faith in Jesus, and counts it as righteousness, our faith in Jesus makes us one with Christ giving us union with him. When Jesus died and rose again, we to by faith, died and rose a new creature in Christ. Having a new life with a new heart. A heart ruled by the peace of Jesus Christ, a peace that surpasses all understanding. A peace which binds us, joins us, and weaves us together, that we are assured , confident, and secured in the love and care of God. This peace strengthens, encourages, guides, sustains ,delivers, saves, provides, and gives us real life, a new life in Christ. This peace makes us one with Christ and his word as our heart is rich with the word of Christ.
His word takes root in the heart and fills us with all the wealth of His commandments, promises, instructions and warnings that we might have real love one to another, as we do everything in the name of Jesus.
