*A thought*:

What is your favourite definition of faith? A little boy, when asked to define faith, said: "Faith is believing what you know isn't true"! The best definitions, of course, are always Scriptural ones. According to Hebrews, faith is "the evidence of things not seen". "Seeing is believing" is the world's motto. "Not seeing is believing" is the Christian's motto._ And why? Because "faith is the evidence of things not seen".

*Week #51 - Memory Verse*:

Philippians 4:8

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things"
