NOTE: Just because there is a scripture reference, don't blow off the content. Hear me out. I am a person. We may or may not believe differently. But we are all people. And THAT gives us a connection.
In Hebrews 11:1 it states: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
It's easy to believe in things that you can see. feel. hear. taste. But, the unseen, well that's a bit different. In the beginning of my faith journey, it was downright hard to do. But, the more I got to know Him, easier it got. I am not in any way, shape or form saying that the trials are easy. (I can attest to the fact of the fiery one I am currently in.) I am just able to look to Him as my source, remember all the times before that He brought me through the fire and the peace I found in that. In Him.
His ways are not my ways. What I think should happen never does. Because He sees it all. From beginning to end. He is God. So I have to trust Him. I have to believe, even though I cannot see, feel, hear, taste it...He will provide for my needs whether they be spiritual, physical, financial, emotional-whatever. He made me so He knows what I need before I do. My job is to TRUST. In. Him. Even though everything I see is to the contrary.
He loves me. He takes care of me. I have to rest in that. I have to remember in the Old Testament, the young Jewish men who were tossed in the furnace. God rescued them. And not ONE hair on their heads were singed. He will do the same for me.
Peace!
