Lazaroo – Monday, February 6, 2012
1 comment, Feb 06, 2012
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in simple, childlike faith:
“Jews demand miraculous signs…”
(1 Corinthians 1:22)
So many people want proof, Jesus:
that the Bible is true
that miracles happen
that You exist.
Of course, the problem with miraculous signs
is that believers believe them
and skeptics don’t.
A stubborn doubter disbelieves everything –
even irrefutable proof stuck right under his nose.
Another problem with miraculous signs is that they depend on the wisdom of the person who demands them.
If I set up a foolish test
something clueless
out of sync
unwise
You won’t pass my test –
not because You can’t
but because You shouldn’t.
The other problem with miraculous signs
is that they’re totally unnecessary.
You already prove Yourself
every day
every moment.
All I have to do is open my eyes…
and there You are
stunning in Your majestic reality!
If I’m blind to the overwhelming proof all around me
the problem isn’t You.
It’s me.
