Living by faith is what it means to follow Jesus. Living by faith is all about taking steps that put our faith in Jesus into tangible, measurable action - for us to see, and for others to see. God is the only one that can see our hearts and the faith it contains; the rest of us need something to see and measure. God has given us several easy to identify steps to take that help propel our faith to new heights and that help us grow closer to Him and others. These are the things that build our faith.
