Day By Day Faith

God gives us the strength we need according to our daily requirements. We mustn’t make the mistake of trying to “store up grace” for future emergencies, because God gives us the grace we need when we need it. Nobody, no matter how wealthy or gifted, can live two days at a time.

2 Corinthians 4:16-17 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.  For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

When we learn to live a day at a time, confident of God’s care, it takes a great deal of pressure off our lives.

Of itself, suffering won’t make us holier men and women. Unless we yield to the Lord, turn to His Word, and trust Him to work in our lives, our suffering could make us bitter. We need that “spirit of faith”.
