Some thoughts on where faith and confidence comes from.

Walking by faith and not sight does not come naturally.

Knowing God is real must be a corner stone to all faith and knowledge.

Ponder on this verse...

"Be still and know that I am God....

Have doubts?

Come aside into the quiet - consider the ants - they are tiny and He knows each one...

Each one beautifully made and expressing His creative genius.

Consider the trees all lifting arms to the sun, the flowers presenting His beauty and food for the bees.

He made all this and it is good.

Come aside to the quiet - consider the beauty around you - evidence of Him.

Be still and KNOW that He is God.

Hey Carl praise God how you doing sir.

What this always gets me thinking about is all through out my life all the times I missed Him. By that I mean never saw Him in doing it. Always there. So through out life it can seem God is not real yet even when we didn't know Him He was there. We look back .. just wow

Yes - and He leaves a fingerprint of Love on His creation, still visible despite the fall.

And hey - a cornerstone doesn't move !!! Yet is essential in holding the whole building up and establishing its direction. So He is acting on our behalf whether we see evidence of Him moving or not.
