Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. ... By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. Hebrews 11:1,3 (NIV)
My reflection of the verse
As I pondered on the verse today , I wondered if most of God's children live by faith and not by sight. God has shown man all kinds of wonders and He even went down from heaven to show His love. Sadly, for many it's not enough. It reminds me of Thomas , one of Jesus' disciples. When Jesus resurrected and visited His disciples, Thomas was not around. The disciples told him that Jesus has risen but he did not believe. Then, Jesus appeared and he believed. Jesus has said blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.[John 20:24-29] The verses also speak about faith. We should have faith in Jesus even though we do not see Him. We should trust Him with all our hearts and should not worry what comes along because God has always been faithful to us and will never forsake us.
