As our troubles mount, so do our anxieties—and the fervency in which we seek His help. Paul was inspired to inform us that God demands that we trust Him and exhibit faith (Hebrews 11:6). But faith ends when the trouble passes or God answers. We only need faith when we have problems we cannot solve. But faith does not demand that we must be successful; it does demand that we never give up.

God is not far away and is completely involved in the lives of those He loves. He does many little things that we may not notice, but we must understand that the view God has far surpasses ours. He sees a potential that reaches out into eternity. Faith is the path we tread to reach the goal He has placed for us. A righteous man may fall seven times, but he gets up again because he has faith (Proverbs 24:16). Never quitting is the victory faith gives.
