To believe... to have conviction... to trust... to accept as true... that is what it means to believe.
Our beliefs... what we have confidence in, what we trust in... motivate our actions. To believe is an active word. It requires placing trust in a concept... to accept what is spoken.
It is a dangerous world that we live in. There are many opinions, pieces of propaganda, social injustices in this world... yet what do you believe? who do you believe? The scripture states that as the end approaches there will be great rumors of wars ... and many will come claiming they are the Christ... and many will fall away from the faith. Still, there is but one absolute and that is that the Father of us all, the Creator of the Universe is fully in charge of everything. Nothing escapes His gaze. This I can believe in. This I can put my trust in.
Consider what you believe in... consider what you put your faith in... consider what you take for fact... is it really true? examine... discern... pray... listen to Holy Spirit.
Look for the truth... and you will know what you can believe in.
love,
Ramy B
