Do not occupy your heart with inquiring how much or how little faith you may have, but think rather of Him in whom you trust. The more we know of our God and our Lord, the firmer will be our faith. There may be as considerable a danger to the prosperity of our faith, by our efforts to gauge its quantity, as there is by looking at our feelings and joys instead of to Christ. Testing what sort our faith is, is not faith in God, but a form of self-occupation.
