Faith is only real when it can endure two things: tests and time. Faith understands the goodness of God is eternal and never limited or lost in time. Faith is anchored by patience. Faith has a never turn-back anointing to know that God created time to keep us organized in our souls while His plans manifest. The only thing God’s promise can do is fulfill itself. This is a journey, not a sprint. See His promise from here. Joy is the strength to stand and do it again! Joy makes faith ready; patience makes faith endure.
