READING THE BIOGRAPHICAL lives of those who walked in great faith never suffices for our own experience. We may revel in the adventures of well known saints, have our spirits lifted for a time and still find ourselves in shallow waters. Great faith is always accompanied by great trials; our own walk of faith will never become a reality until we tread the deeps exceeding our depth, a place where we have to trust God beyond our wits.

– M.A. Williams
