John 20: Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
yes. I have quoted that many times. I think it used to be more readily accepted.. today in an instant world where we are bombarded with everything but God.. I didn’t have to see...I believed a long time ago... disappointment and pride enters in on why many do not believe .. and few get the vision..
My grandmother was a huge influence on me and my family.. all who knew her.. she lost everything in her life.. over passage of time.. and she never lost her faith... they knew things happen in life... today it’s supposed to be perfect or we complain. and lose faith.
I don’t see any other hope but God.. without Him, I am alone on this earth.. I lost that son.. he was a precious gift for his entire life.. I would have given my life for his... I know the God I serve. ... it’s called trusting even when you do not understand... and it’s a daily work.. to give up my wants and count on Him knowing more than I do...and that He cares.
