The Measure of Faith

This should be as easy as 1-2-3.

Romans 12 3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Every one has a measure of faith.

Knowing the measure of faith of an individual:

Faith comes by hearing, charity is greatest, lend an ear.

Hebrews 13 2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

Our faith journey begins when we're born, the beginning of our life story. It's like we're all born holding a cup. The more substance and evidence one gathers in life, the larger their cup grows. To share that substance and evidence is what it means for one's cup to run over. Those that lack substance and evidence for their stories have a cup that doesn't grow and doesn't run over.

Faith is a measure.

Faith is the measure of substance and evidence one has for a story.

Those with much substance and evidence have much faith.

Those that lack substance and evidence at least have a story and are faithless.

Due to the fact that God has substance and evidence for his every word, is why it is written God is faithful.

In God speaking his holy name he caused the big bang, of which the record of it is found in the cosmic microwave background radiation.

Psalms 62 11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.

Romans 12 3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
