Romans 12:3 (CSB) 3For by the grace given to me, I tell everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he should think. Instead, think sensibly, as God has distributed a measure of faith to each one.

A measure of faith is given to everyone of us. First it is the faith to accept Jesus as our savior, faith to be saved. Next would be faith to believe His word. Faith to do His word would then follow. Faith to believe the Holy Spirit might come next. Faith to follow the Holy Spirit. And so on until we get the faith to die and spend eternity with Him. For some it may take a few seconds to move from one faith to another. For others it may take a life time to move form one to the next. The most important part we must keep moving forward to the next faith journey God has for us. As we use our faith in response to Him I believe He can give us a new measure of faith pressed down and running over (Luke 6:38). This is the way with anything we can give to God, money, time, possessions, faith, love, ... etc.

Colossians 2:6-7 (CSB)  6 So then, just as you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, 7 being rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, and overflowing with gratitude.
