The title in the bracket is not the middle name of Faith Hill, the famous singer. But the word of God is clear when it says to build our faith as high as we cn. As we all know, that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
What is the difference between having faith and dreaming then? When we are dreaming, we can dream as high as we can, we can even compete our dream with others. But our faith depends on our hearing of the word of God. After hearing the word, we still need to do the steps so our faith will be complete.
Another difference is, when we fail to chase our dream, we can still dream big. Our failure does not affect our dream. However, when we fail in the process of our steps of faith, we can grow weak, or even die. So, what should we do about it?
Again, the answer is to never stop hearing the word of God in every level of building our faith. By hearing His words, faith can grow, faith can be strengthened. Failure in the process of achieving our goal can always happen. But, that is the crucial time when we need to strengthen our faith.
“It takes more faith to take NO for an answer than YES for an answer” (Andy Stanley).
When we face our unsaved family, or when we’re still waiting for the acceptance letter that doesn’t seem to come, when all our effort seems to fail, everything depends on how we take care of our faith growth.
I really hope we will all be the children of God who never stop to build our faith as high as we can. We are called to have faith as higha s a hill!
