If you’re going to have faith, then get on with it!
If you’re going to have faith, you don’t need to have some sort of affirming interaction from God every five minutes. That’s not faith; that’s either worry, or it’s severe immaturity—and neither is good.
If you’re going to have faith, just keep studying hard, believing what you read, and doing the right thing. And if you live that way, you’re going to be OK with God, even if you never had a personal intervention from God from now until the day you die.
God knows who really loves and trusts and obeys him. And those who love and trust and obey know he knows it. They’re not needing constant reassurance every time their mood changes. They’re not easily rattled or shaken. And if you’ve been taught to be constantly needy like that, you really should double check whether the scriptures teach such an idea—or is that just a church idea?
In the fear of the Lord one has strong confidence, and his children will have a refuge.
Proverbs 14:26. ESV
For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
Hebrews 3:14. ESV
35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.
Hebrews 10:35-36. ESV
