Just Believe that He Is
Hebrews 11:6 Without faith no one can please God. Whoever comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who sincerely try to find him.
Many people, even those, might I say who believe in Jesus, live life with a sense that something … something’s missing. It’s not easy to put your finger on. But surely there must be more to life than this.
Let’s imagine for a minute that God is God. That He created you and that He loves you completely. Okay, so what sort of life then, would that kind of God, want for you?
Well, if God’s prepared to have His Son die for you, I believe that He wants you to have nothing short of a stunning life. No. Not necessarily a comfortable life, or an easy life or a convenient life. Nothing worthwhile is ever comfortable or easy or convenient.
So how do you get your life on the road to that stunning life that God has planned for you?
Well, the first step is simply believing that God exists. Not in some distant, intellectual sense, but with your very life; with all that you are and all that you have; with the way that you live; with the decisions that you make.
Hebrews 11:6 Without faith no one can please God. Whoever comes to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards those who sincerely try to find him.
Because let me tell you, if you approach Him, believing that He actually exists, that He is who He says He is, that He’ll do what He promises to do – He will reward you, with a stunning life. A life of purpose. A life that might be hard in patches, a life that mightn’t always be what you expected, but a life that leaves you with a deep sense of satisfaction and contentment.
He rewards those who sincerely try to find Him.
That’s God’s Word. Fresh … for you … today.
