Faith
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see
(Hebrews 11:1; NIV).
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe” (John 20:29; NIV).
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth (Psalm 145:18; NIV).
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength (Mark 12:30).
Faith isn’t about
Feeling close to God,
Or having
Amazing spiritual experiences –
Though such things
Are always wonderful.
It’s about trusting him
In good times and bad,
Knowing he is with us,
And loving him
With all our heart, soul,
Mind and strength –
Whether we feel his presence
Or not.
