We all go through times of doubt, and wonder if we're losing our faith. Such times can often make us question whether God really exists and whether, if he does, we're really in relationship with him.
Worries about losing faith lead to self-doubt and we blame ourselves for drifting away. But it is vital to remember that while we may wander and drift, God is steadfast and his promises do not change.
Here are 10 Bible verses to help you when you feel you are losing your faith.
Numbers 23:19
"God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?"
Mark 5:35-36
"While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, 'Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?' But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, 'Do not fear, only believe.'"
Hebrews 11:1-40
"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."
Hebrews 10:35-39
"Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. For, 'Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay; but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.' But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls."

And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, 'Give me justice against my adversary.' For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, 'Though I neither fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.'"
1 Corinthians 3:19
"For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, 'He catches the wise in their craftiness.'"
