February 27 – Faith Seeking Understanding
God, I believe You… except when I don’t.
God, I believe You… except when I don’t.
Through the best and the worst that life has thrown at me, I can say with confidence that never once has my Savior left me alone.
Before dawn would break Jesus was getting alone to spend time with the Father. Over and over again He would do this. If He needed to do so, how much more do I?
The hardest ones to love are often the ones who are not so different…
Is this most sacred of cows actually doing more harm than good?
All around the world there are millions of people who for thousands of reasons of poverty, oppression and injustice are crying out for a Savior to come. Two thousand years ago He came incarnated in a little baby. This year He still comes, incarnated in you.
Are we joining in with creation in rejoicing that the incarnated Son is on the throne? The Savior reigns. In those three short words is packed so much beautiful theology. Is it in you?
The Bible is also something of great worth. It is a love letter from my fiance’. It is my marching orders from the Supreme Commander. It is an instruction manual for how I can put my life back together. It is the promise of a better future.
One of the biggest lies that it seems everybody believes:
“God is more concerned with who you are than what you do.”
We are so quick to blame Him when things go wrong. We are also just as quick to forget Him when things go right.
