Do I live a Life of Faith.

I see much in the Bible about faith. If I haste to its pages with guilt on my soul, and ask how I shall be forgiven, it tells me to have faith in Christ. If I go burdened with afflictions and trials, it tells me to have faith in Christ. If I enquire how I shall overcome the world, it still points me to faith as my means of victory; and if I go to seek the means of success in my daily warfare, pilgrimage, and pursuit of Heaven, it sweetly tells me I must look to Jesus. Hence, I believe that faith is not merly one act, performed when God for Christ's sake forgives a sinner, but a succession of acts repeated every moment until faith is the habit of the mind, and I am believing and rejoicing every moment on the blood of my Saviour. Then I live a life of faith.—D. Wise.
