"He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;" Romans 4:20
What is this thing called faith? We hear about faith all the time and know we are supposed to have it, but what exactly is it? Faith is believing God, even when what we are believing Him for does not look like the word that He spoke to us.

"For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee." Isaiah 41:13

When we are used to being independent and doing things on our own and really not depending on anybody else it becomes difficult to ask for help when we need help. Then it seems when we need help the people we ask to help us cannot help they way we need the help.
