In our walk with God, we understand that faith is not merely a belief but needs to be acted upon. When we decide to try, we are putting our faith into action. The Bible teaches us that even the smallest effort, when encouraged by faith, can yield great results. Let’s remember that each attempt we make is an expression of our commitment to living out our faith in our everyday lives.
