Sa, 02/28/15, "Day of Praise"
"[Jesus said,] 'But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.'" - Matthew 13:16
Faith, which is to trust in what can only be seen with the eyes of the heart, is a simple but profound mystery.
Faith is truly a gift from God, as God says plainly in Ephesians 2:8-10 through Paul.
And faith, which is to trust in what can only be seen with the eyes of the heart, is the way that we receive the abundant life that God gives through Jesus alone by God's grace alone.
The point in all this is this. If you have faith in Jesus and his life-giving work, then praise God, for God alone can work such simple, yet profound, faith in us.
That same faith is God's gift to help us see that even hopefully restful Saturdays and hopefully worshipful Sundays and "back to the grindstone Mondays" are happy days because God is in our midst! May God bless you in your rest, your worship, and your labors so that your rest, worship, and labors may be a praise to God.
