Faith don't come in a bushel basket, Missy. It come one step at a time. Decide to trust Him for one little thing today, and before you know it, you find out He's so trustworthy you be putting your whole life in His hands.

About This Quote

In the book of James, the Bible tells us that faith does not come by hearing the word of God. Faith comes from hearing His Word and believing it. That’s why James says that faith doesn’t come in a bushel basket. Faith is a commitment to a relationship with God that is not based on what we hear, but who we see.
