Faith That Looks Outside Itself
Scripture
“For by grace you have been saved through faith… not a result of works.” — Ephesians 2:8–9
Personal Reflection
True faith looks away from self and clings wholly to Christ. In storms, self-trust collapses—but faith finds strength in Another.
Contemplation
Is my faith resting in Christ—or in my experience of faith?
Puritan Quote
John Owen wrote, “Faith empties the soul of self and fills it with Christ.”
Prayer
Lord, keep my faith fixed on You alone, not on my feelings or performance.
Application
When uncertainty rises, deliberately shift your focus from self to Christ.
