By Faith we...

We have been offered/given the gift of faith and like every other gift, we must decide to
receive it or not. What have you done with this gift from God? We see here in Hebrews that faith IS the substance of things hoped for...do you have hope? We see here that faith is evidence of the things not seen...do you see? Faith is how one obtains a good testimony even when every man is not good; the only good One is God. By faith we understand that God created and framed the worlds by His Word, so that we would know that the things that are seen were not created out of themselves.

Hebrews 11:1-3
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.
3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

Accept this Faith, this gift from God Himself: Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

John 20:24-25
24 Now Thomas, called the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.
25 The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord." So he said to them, "Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe."

John 20:29 Jesus said to him, "Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."

God blesses and loves those that believe, those who have not seen, yet...believe!
