A Hard Thing

  A Hard Thing

The Psalmist writes,

“The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” Psalm 14:1.

Atheist tell people there is no God. But how do they know? 

The way I see it in order to know there is no God you have to have been everywhere and see everything. Which are traits of God making the atheist a god.

No one in this world can say for certain there is not God simply because God could be in the place that person has never been. A good example is the grave. No one living has gone beyond the grave.

Blaise Pascal made a wise statement, saying,

“Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists.” Blaise Pascal.

To believe in God requires faith. The writer of Hebrews stating,

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 

and certain of what we do not see."  

                                                  Hebrews 11:1.

Faith in anything especially in something or someone we cannot see is for most people a very hard thing. Perhaps that is why God asks us to have faith in Him.

Please think about it.
