'When you were little, did someone big ever carry you? Did you rest your head on his shoulder, lean your whole weight on him?
Faith is leaning your whole weight on God. Resting your head on his shoulder.
Faith means resting - relying - not on who we are, or what we can do, or how we feel, or what we know.
Faith is resting in who God is and what he has done.
And he has done EVERYTHING.
"And so we know and rely on the love God has for us." (1 John 4:16).'
