Can you see it?

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."

Hebrews 11:1

When our son, Tony, was three years old, he came to me and said,

"I have a headache, Mom.  See it?  It hurts!  Can you see it, Mom?"

Truth be told, I couldn't see the headache but I certainly believed it was there.

There are so many things I can't see.
I can't see electricity, but I believe that when I flip a switch, electricity goes to the light bulb and there is light!
I can't see gravity, but I believe that if I trip, I will fall d-o-w-n.  

There are many things I can't see, but that doesn't mean they aren't there.

Faith.

Hope.

Love.

Hard to see, but they do exist.

Let us s-t-r-e-t-c-h today and believe a little more in the God who created us, 
in the God who sustains us.  
Let us grow in faith and trust and walk in confident hope.

Heavenly Father, increase in me Your gifts of faith, hope and love.  Open my eyes to see Your goodness and may I be a visual witness of Your love.  In the Name of Christ, Amen.
