Why do we need tokens from God in our lives?

Tokens are spiritual symbols of God's faithfulness and love during our life's journey. They remind us that God acknowledges our struggles and responds with His grace, thus bolstering our faith. Throughout Scripture, various figures like David and Moses sought tokens to confirm God's presence and assurance amidst trial and doubt. In the Reformed perspective, this need reflects the believer's reliance on God's promises—an understanding that we are but frail vessels in need of constant divine grace and reassurance of His love and purpose in our lives.
