Faith

Faith begins in the wilderness-when you are alone and afraid, when things don't make sense.

In the wilderness of loneliness we are terribly vulnerable.

But we may be missing the fact that it is here....here where we may learn to love Him-here where it seems He is not at work, where His will seems obscure or frightening, where He is not doing what we expected Him to do.

If faith does not go to work here it will not go to work at all.

God's answer is always: "Trust me."
