When God begins His work in us, He begins to build up - in the core of our spiritual beings - a strong enduring expectation and hope in His person and in His Word.

Jesus never will deny your honest fears. He will never dismiss them. But He does ask us not to be afraid of what is frightening.

Do you want your faith strengthened so that you willingly obey even when you can not see the end from the beginning?

Faith sees Christ as the greatest treasure to be sought after. And this faith makes us want to be near God.
