Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in humble reverence:

“I have been reminded of your sincere faith…”
(2 Timothy 1:5)

What kind of faith is that, Jesus?

A faith that is…“sincere?”

Obviously, it can’t be mere words.

I have to mean it.

It can’t be based on my opinion or the opinions of others.

It has to be solidly grounded in Your Word.

It can’t even be a Scripture verse that I mindlessly rattle off, along with chapter and verse.

I’ve got to think it through
take my stand on it
make it mine.

It can’t be double-minded.

I’ve got to have it out

with doubt.

But the toughest thing of all may be to simply

take Your Word on it
without a shred of physical proof

Because down deep I know the truth:

A faith based on sight isn’t just insincere.

It’s no faith at all.
