SAMUEL ADEWALE
Faith Beyond Feelings
«Faith is not pretending difficult things don't exist. It is learning how to trust God while they do.»
There is a kind of faith that only survives good weather. It sings easily on a morning when prayers seem to land and circumstances cooperate. But there is another kind, quieter and harder to notice from the outside, that keeps trusting on the days when nothing confirms it. This book is about the second kind.
