Living by faith is more than simply talking to God about needs. It’s living every day as if God has everything under control. When you are a Christian, you’re supposed to have faith on a daily basis in God, in His Word and in the big promises He has for us. Faith is believing in things that you can not yet see, believing without proof that something better is waiting for you in the future. Faith is trusting that there is a plan just for you, not a preconceived plan for others. Faith is being optimistic that things will turn out for the best. Faith is being hopeful. The Bible tells us that faith is a gift from God, and when God gives it to you, it is a gift. Faith is an act of our will, and a gift is something provided with no expectation of anything in return.
