“Now faith is confidence of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Heb 11.1”
“Now faith is being sure of what we believe in and certain of what we do not see. (Heb. 11:1)”
“Maybe we are a little crazy. After all, we believe in things we don't see. The Scriptures say that faith is "being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see" (Heb. 11:1). We believe poverty can end even though it is all around us. We believe in peace even though we hear only rumours of wars. And since we are people of expectation, we are so convinced that another world is coming that we start living as if it were already here.”
“To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.”
“Great faith, like great strength in general, is revealed by the ease of its workings. Most of what we think we see as the struggle OF faith is really the struggle to act as IF we had faith when in fact we do not.”
“In the world before we came here, faithful women were given certain assignments... while we do not now remember the particulars, this does not alter the glorious reality of what we once agreed to. You are accountable for those things which long ago were expected of you.”
