Hard to Believe

 

Have you ever said in disbelief, “That just can’t be true.”  Or when you heard some really good news, have you said, “Is that really true?”  The dear Lord knows that we are mere humans with limited faith, and He can deal with our doubts.  When John the Baptist was in prison, he had doubts.  When Thomas heard that Jesus had risen from the dead, he just couldn’t believe it.  But when Thomas actually met Jesus face to face in John 20:28 & 29, “Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”  Hey, have you ever doubted?  When you do, just double down on what you know to be true.  And like the desperate father in Mark 9:24, say, “Lord, I believe, help thou my unbelief.”
