The RustProof team is reading through the Gospels in 30 days.
During my reading various scriptures will pop out at me.
This was one of them.
A few days back I passed by this…
What a question, huh?!
Do you believe?
There are so many things that I believe that Jesus can do.
Same goes for you.
Some things are just easy to believe in.
But then there are those other things…
Do I really believe Jesus’ plan for my finances is the best one?
Do I really believe Jesus when he told me not to worry about my future?
Those are some tough questions…
But questions worth answering with a resounding ‘Yes, Lord’
Easy to write.
Difficult to live.
Let’s take the step of Faith and believe Jesus
I also love Mark 9 where we find a father bringing his son to Jesus to heal him of the evil spirit that has tormented the boy. The disciples couldn’t help him and he asked if Jesus could help him. Jesus response was ““‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for him who believes.” The father’s response is an honest one. Mark 9:24 says, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”
We know that for that moment in time we can believe, but it isn’t always easy to keep on believing, especially if things take longer than we want them to in our situation, or if the road we thought was going straight takes a 90 degree left turn.
Just as the blind men and the father came to Jesus, we need to keep coming to Jesus and asking him to work in our lives.
