Faith, Does it Grow?

Faith, Does it Grow?

Some say faith is changeless.

Some say it is in constant flux.

I still am wondering –

What is faith?

What knowledge is necessary to produce faith?

What understanding brings it on?

What or who is the object of faith?

How do my failures impact it?

How do my successes impact it?

I wonder –

What are the important questions regarding faith?

And what are the answers?

Faith in false fails!

False faith fails!

Confidence in error

Yields no good thing.

Where does faith begin?

How does it grow?

Does faith begin in full knowledge?

When is faith complete?

Faith begins by the introduction of a hypothesis.

Testing of the hypothesis follows.

Faith grows by experience.

“I believe, help thou my unbelief.”

A glimpse of God

Guided by the Holy Spirit

Is the beginning of faith.

Comprehending His character,

A gift of the Holy Spirit,

Builds faith.

Exercising faith,

Confirms His character!
And faith grows.
