Heroes of faith
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony… without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Hebr. 11: 1-2,6.
In the Bible we can read about many such people, who kept their faith in all kinds of difficult circumstances. They were never let down by God, but with Him they were able to do that which was impossible! That’s why they’re called heroes of faith.
