The Tiptoe of Expectancy

Wednesday. Heb. 11: 1-10.

Faith is being sure about the thing you hope for. Hope is more than desire; it is expectancy. The inner eye looks out and sees the thing in actual possession or reahzation before it really is. And so the life is held true to God. In spite of depression or of opposition one holds steady and quiet and true and keeps sweet. And the thing comes. God never fails. The fruits come, big and juicy.
