Wisdom's Words: Faith

Abraham's faith was tested when God asked him to give everything.  Faith cannot be less than total. To trust in God means to look to Him alone, to find in Him all our hope, to hold nothing back, no reserve.  Faith is commitment.  Yet, just because faith looks to God and not to ourselves, faith's giving is really receiving.  In commitment, the price faith pays is everything.  But in total trust, the price is nothing.  -Edmund Clowney
