Not an easy thing

 Not an easy thing

The writer of Hebrews states,

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 

and certain of what we do not see."  

                                                     Hebrews 11:1

To have faith in something you cannot see can be very difficult for many people. Let’s face it is easy to believe in something you can see, hear, and touch.

I think that’s why God wants us to have faith He exists.

Additionally I believe people of faith are the strongest of followers.

Scientist use faith a lot. They postulate a theory based on what they see and then make a leap of faith saying that such and such a thing must be true.

Albert Einstein had faith in many things. He predicted that various things were happening in the universe around him and believed in the theory until his death even though he couldn’t prove it in his lifetime.

So it is with God. God asks we believe in Him by faith. That being said it is not blind faith. The psalmist states,

"The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands."   

                                                      Psalm 19:1.

God simply asks us to look at the universe around us.

Robert Brault said,

“God left so many fingerprints at the scene of Creation that you wonder — does He want to be found, or does He want to be stopped?” Robert Brault.

So the question becomes. Do you have faith that God exists?

Please think about it.
