Tozer describes faith as a continuous, inward gaze upon God, not a one-time act. 'Faith is the gaze of a soul upon a saving God.' This sustained, intentional focus on God transforms and purifies the believer, leading to a deeper, more intimate relationship with God. This continuous gaze is akin to the Israelites looking at the bronze serpent, symbolizing a sustained focus on Jesus. | A. W. Tozer | The Pursuit of God
