JOURNAL/SEEING IS BELIEVING

"Ananias said, 'Saul, my brother, the Lord has sent me, Jesus who appeared to you on the way by which you came, that you might regain your sight........"    Acts 9:17

The conversion of Paul is ONE of the GREATEST miracles in the bible-TURNING a CHRISTIAN hater and killer into-PERHAPS the GREATEST CHRISTIAN evangelist in history

Dear Lord-we pray for those who are physically blind-but ALSO those who are SPIRITUALLY BLIND

our VISION that we can see your PLAN OF LOVE for today's world

IT is A GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in your LOVE for ALL OF US!












SEEING IS BELIEVING




Have you ever heard
The saying, “Seeing is believing”


I have
And to me-this is science
100 per cent proof or fact


Believing without seeing
I call it FAITH
And this is what you need
To FIND GOD in your life


You need to know
That someone is there
Without being able
To see it, touch it, or feel it
Or prove it 100%


You have
To feel it in your heart
KNOW-a presence is there
For your own good


Faith in God
Is a trust and dependence
On God
Just knowing he is there


In January of 1978
I had just came out
From my 3^rd life and death operation
In the last year


I was
For the most part bedridden
And my Doctors
Were still telling me
That there was no medical reason
That I was for the most part-CRAZY


I literally
Crawled around the stacks of medical books
In the Woods Run Library
Reading every medical book
I could get my hands on


In August of 1981
Crohn’s disease was finally proven
And a team of Doctors
Apologized to me-and said
“You should be the doctor”


Faith
I am a BELIEVER
In God-and in Christ
WITHOUT SEEING


In Genesis
Moses tells the story
Of a man with great faith


God tells Abraham
To sacrifice his son-Isaac
And in a particularly poignant story
Abraham is ready to do just that


“Then God said,
“Take your son
Your only son, Isaac
Whom you love
And go to the region
Of Moriah


Sacrifice him there
As a burnt offering
On one of the mountains
I will tell you about” Genesis 22:2


When Abraham was ready
To sacrifice his son
God called out,


“DO not
Lay a hand on the boy


Do no t do anything
To him
Now I know
You fear God
Because you have
Not withheld from me-your son
Your only son” Genesis 22:12


Abraham then looked up
And saw a ram
Caught by his horns
Which he sacrificed
In place of his son-Isaac


And we ALL know
The story of Jesus, Mary , and Joseph


SEEING maybe believing
But sometimes
FAITH is proof enough
ALL BY ITSELF


I BELIEVE
