God gives gifts in different measure. One of the gifts listed in 1 Corinthians 12 is the gift of faith. It sure seems like we all need faith, right? But He gives an extra measure of faith to some of His children.
For those who have not been given that special helping of faith, doubt is occasionally, and sometimes often, a source of challenge. It is not like we can reach out our hands and touch God's face. We don't hear him audibly.
Yes, I know, His hand is everywhere, and He speaks to us through His Word. But when things are hard, we waver.
I think that lack of concreteness, combined with an endless stream of challenges this side of heaven, is what causes so many people to wonder if God cares about them.
Have you ever wondered, "Does God really love me? After all I have done?"
The answer, of course is yes. You and I can know this is true by what He has done for us. For broken, stumbling, still-making-mistakes you and me.
What has He done for us? Read more about God's Ultimate Demonstration of Love in my post today at Do Not Depart....
So true. God does love us no matter what because He IS love. Thank you so much for sharing your faith!
