Proven faith brings experience. If you had not been obliged to pass through the rivers, you wouldn't have believed in your weakness, if you had not been sustained in the midst of the waters, you would have never get to know God's power. The more you exercise faith in affliction, the more it grows in strength, security and intensity. Faith is precious, and its trials are beautiful too. "- C.H. Spurgeon.
