Although not a long book, this volume will encourage anyone who wants to know God better and to see him work in their lives.Based on the fact that a new habit can start in 21 days, the author presents daily lessons for growing faith. She begins with scriptural definitions of faith.She discusses how to know one is living a life of faith, how to recognize enemies of faith (worry kills faith immediately), and what to do when God seems far away and life feels buried under a thick fog. She stresses the importance of speaking faith words, but also being honest and real about our emotions and circumstances.The basics of faith are talking to God (prayer) about everything (learning total dependence on him) and listening to God (Bible reading and study) and to that still, small voice of the Holy Spirit. Then obeying what we hear.The author and her husband are full time Christian ministry workers. They learned to live in faith from personal experiences and study. Hits wrote that sometimes walking in faith can feel like jumping off a cliff blindfolded. She regularly quotes outstanding faith thoughts from famous people, such as Mother Teresa.
