As seen in today's passage, faith is breaking through the roof when the way is blocked. Sometimes we think we have faith but couldn't do something for this or that reason, believing it's not due to a lack of faith. However, if we claim to believe in Jesus but make no effort to meet Him, that cannot be called faith.
Jesus sees people’s faith. Living by faith means living by God's power, not by our own ability. To show our faith, we must act according to God's story, regardless of our capabilities. When we move forward in faith, Jesus cleanses our sins and fills us with the Holy Spirit. This enables us to live from faith to faith.
