The Christian walk of faith is not without trials. Christians believe that God allows difficulties in the life of a believer for many purposes. As these great quotes about trusting God illustrate, Christians believe that they can walk with trust in God in spite of circumstances.

And as each of these quotes teaches, trusting God reaps many rewards both in this life and the life to come for the Christian believer. I hope you will be encouraged by these quotes in your walk with God.
