We have a tendency to hold on to hope while we can see an open door. But that's a hope of the world. That is to walk by sight and not by faith. Jesus said, "Fear not, believe only." When all we have is faith, when we know that there is no solution, neither luckily nor by circumstance, is when we walk by faith and grow in it. Faith grows during those times when God is the one who intervenes knowing that there is no way out.
