Romans 4:20b He grew strong in his faith as he gave glory
to God.
It seems so
elementary in some ways, yet I still see this principle as important enough in
my own life to bear repeating for my own benefit once again: My faith will grow stronger every time I use
it. In this verse the Apostle Paul
was speaking about the trial of Abraham being asked to sacrifice his son Isaac,
and how Abraham’s exercise of blind faith was a key element in his spiritual
development. His faith became strong
because of that experience and I want my faith to grow stronger. Although I
do not know what God will allow in my life in the future to accomplish that, I
can see ways in which that has already happened in my life experiences, events
that have been difficult but through which I continued to give glory to God and
saw the result of stronger faith. I hope
and pray that I will always live out this important spiritual principle.
