• Such is the true character of the decision of faith. Faith decides because God has determined. This point is important. Often we know the will of God beforehand and instead of saying, “I have determined” to do it, we seek excuses and good reasons to avoid it or at least to avoid putting our whole heart into it. (“Hiram. Preparation for the Temple: 1 Kings 5” by H.L. Rossier)
