11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Wow I like that chapter. Its such a quick walk through so many examples of faith spread throughout the bible. I like it even more that we've been through each of those examples in our time reading together. I did have to look a couple up from the list of names at the end to recall the stories.
We have so many examples to help us in our own journey's and strengthen our own faith. I like the simple statement at the beginning defining what faith is followed by all the examples of what it looks like to live with complete faith. I don't hope to have to demonstrate my faith by such extraordinary actions of some of those who came before us. But I do hope that their actions inspire me to live in a way that others would know I have faith in God.

I"m with ya. A great walk through the lesson of faith. I get caught in the trap of thinking that I'm not DOING enough....when the real key is to have a strong faith. Faith is where it all starts.
