valley.
like a bridge, our faith is only sure when we test it. or rather, when GOD tests us i suppose. our tendency in american christianity is to attempt to divide faith and life so that we are sure without sacrifice, without testing. consider if your relationship with GOD is worth anything to you if it doesn't hold up when you don't get your way, or you find you are in a valley of life. "dark night of the sould" as it has been called. not discipline--testing. not belief -- but faith. will the promises of GOD and the hope of heaven be your anchor in the storms of life? are will you be drifting?
" So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him." II Corinthians 5:6-9
