Trusting the Unseen



Wind cannot be seen, only the results of it!  The spoken word cannot be seen, only the results of it!  God cannot be seen or touched so how can we know that He exists?  Billy Graham faced this same question after his atheist friend tormented him to the point of crying out to the Lord for proof of some kind that He did exist.

We are creatures of the fall of mankind a long time ago.  In the Garden Adam walked and talked with the Creator...after sin entered the world through Adam he no longer saw the Lord and His voice was silenced.  I cannot imagine the great sorrow Adam and Eve must have felt after being in a paradise.  Ever since then people have lived with the thought, does God exist or does He not?  We see so much sorrow in the world we blame the Lord and say how can a good God let such horrible things happen? 

There is a glorious answer!  John 1:14 "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth".  So simple, the Word of God is either the truth or it is a lie!  Taken on faith and tested in our lives we know beyond the shadow of a doubt that God exists!  God will never have to prove His existence, but rather men will either believe and live or reject His Word and go to hell.
