I had some financial issues. I would spend time figuring. Figuring out how to deal with them. But figuring is not faith.

Figuring is what our brain does with a problem. I had a sense that God wanted me to live as though I had no financial problems. This day by day trusting seemed more like faith.

Our brains take what is known and uses that to solve a problem. But does it take God into its working? God is the unknown factor. What will he do? It is often surprising what God does. He does say to us, “Fear not.”
