I am so depressed these past months. And my husband is always asking me on how big is my faith with God? I have doubt to myself that I am loosing some hope due to my past experiences and disappointments. But I should believe that he is there to catch me once I can't handle my problems anymore. I should start watching out the blessings rather than the problems. I am now starting to build up the faith in Him. How about you? How big is your FAITH in tough times?

Normally training or testing of Faith comes during a trial or tough times! Faith is walking on an upward slope, never a destination. Most of the times, we either stopped or slide back in our faith. It takes regular prayers and discipline to walk closely with the Lord. We are not pefect and God knows. He will give us waht we can't take. Continue to trust in Him and grow in faith. Constant learning and application of His word is one good ways of growing in faith.

I know but it is really hard to hang on especially if you are in tough times. But you are right, this will be the time to make your faith stronger.

I have always had a lot of faith which has helped me through many tough times but nothing compares to the faith that my sister-in-law has. In the past five years she has lost a son in an automobile accident, another son in another accident, her father in yet another accident, her mother to heart disease, her sister was diagnosed with colon cancer which she's fighting to this day, her husband (my husband's brother) was diagnosed with throat cancer and went through chemo and raidation treatment for months, recovered from that only to have the cancer return three years later which lead to radical surgery to his throat. He will never be the same but at least he will be alive. Through all of this she has never once questioned God's love for her or for her family and her faith has remained strong.
