Wednesday, May 19, 2021 No Safer Place "The just shall live by faith" (Romans 1:17 NKJV). Everyone has and lives by a form of faith. Now, someone might say they're not a person of faith. But everyone has faith. Everyone applies faith. Even the atheist has faith, even though it isn't faith in God. Actually, I think it takes more faith to be an atheist and to not believe there is a Creator or someone who is in control of all the things around us. Everyone has a measure of faith. Everyone has faith in something. Maybe it's faith in themselves, which will be disappointing. Maybe they have faith in a political system, which will be even more disappointing. But they have faith. I think the problem is that we make faith so mystical when, in fact, we act in faith every day. For example, when you go to a restaurant and order, you have faith that the food will be fresh and will be prepared properly. When you board a 747 that weighs more than 300,000 pounds, you apply faith that it will somehow get up into the air and take you to the place you want to go. |
