Your faith matters to God. In fact, God is most honored by your massive, courageous, out-of-the-box faith. Because that’s true, he's committed to growing your faith in a big way. Imagine how different your view of life would be if you had absolute confidence that God was with you? Think how different you would respond to difficulties, temptations, and even good things if you knew without a doubt that God was in all of it and was planning to leverage it for good and his glory.
