Knowing God

The more we know about what God has done in the past, the more we will comprehend the true nature and character of God. The more we know God's nature and character, the easier it is to have confidence in Him and to trust in His ways.

There was a time when I thought the key to having confidence in God and trusting in His ways would be to understand Him. It turns out I was very wrong about that. The secret to being able to put my faith in God then is simply to focus on His nature and character.
