I will hold fast to God no matter what. I will not back off of the word of God. Still others equate faith with emotion. We cry, we laugh, we shake in an effort to have faith. Much of what we call spirituality is often mere emotion.
Emotions are fickle.
They fade in and out like the tide. If our faith has its source in emotions, it too will fade. At times the Lord must bring us to the end of the faith that has its source in our own life that we might partake of the faith of the Son of God. Many years ago I found myself in one of the worst trials of my life. It all began one day when I was in my place of prayer.
