I’ll lead with this from Neil: According to Scripture, the invisible world
is more real than the visible world.
He writes of living with a conviction regarding what is
unseen, crazy as it might seem, as if it’s reality. Faith pleases God because it acknowledges who
He is and that we have simple, child-like trust. It’s about the disposition of my heart more
than anything.
So my question to you is this: What has God spoken to you? What is the reality that you’re waiting to
see with your eyes?
Maybe it’s something you’re waiting for, longing for… Maybe it’s a broken relationship that seems
beyond repair… Maybe it’s simply being
able to believe that you are, in Christ, who God says – dearly loved and
precious beyond belief…
In the book of Mark, a man came to Jesus asking Him to help
his demon-possessed son. He spoke
honestly as he asked Jesus for a miracle:
Have mercy on us and help us. Do
something if you can.
Jesus replied, What do you mean, If I can? Anything is possible if a person believes!
And the man cried out, I do believe! Help my unbelief!
(paraphrased from Mark 9:21-24)
I can’t be too hard on the guy; I find myself in his shoes
from time to time. I do believe; I want
to believe; I’m in the process of believing.
And I know God hears the cry of my heart, and answers it: Lord, help my unbelief! He hears you, too.
