“Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.”  Jn 4:48

Faith often falters until favor becomes fruition. This was the cast of the Jews everywhere, they needed signs and miracles and understandably so, and Christ performed such miracles for that purpose.  But, their sin lay in this; they continued to desire such signs and miracles and were not content in Christ alone, but more in what He had to offer.  Faith is derived by what you don’t see, which allows you to see what you do believe. It states when the nobleman, who sought Jesus’ healing of his son, heard Jesus say “go thy way, thy son liveth” he believed (without seeing) what Jesus had spoken and went to his son. Faith is the strength when you don’t get what you ask; you’re still able to see what you have in Jesus. Is the measure of your faith derived from the performance of God? 

Faith does not exist in the assurances you see, but only in the promises you don’t.
