By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.
- Hebrews 11:3 (NLT)
The internet is full of stories of miracles and believing in things that we can’t see.
We need to come to realize that just because we can’t see something does not mean that it isn’t there.
Or maybe it is the way we perceive something – for example, breathing.
On cold days when we go outside, we can see our breath.
Does that mean that when it is warm out, we aren’t breathing?
Of course not.
We don’t actively think about each breath we take; we understand that God has created us to breath and that we will continue to breath even when we don’t think about it.
Faith is trusting in God, based on what we can see, so that we learn to rely on Him in areas where we cannot see.
On a clear night in the country, we can see stars for miles.
We didn’t see God create them, but we know that He did.
because we have faith in Him.
