Faith isn't Abstract

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." ~ Hebrews 11:1

See also 1 Corinthians 13:4-13. 

Many of us believe that things like faith and love are ephemeral, abstract concepts. But these scriptures show the opposite. In fact, faith and love are tangible things. And as tangible things, they must be demonstrated or shown, not just said. Otherwise, it's not really faith; it's not really love.

Have your faith and love been demonstrated lately?

God bless,

J.W.

Love, Faith, and Fear (Part 7) (Finale)

"And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love." ~ 1 Corinthians 13:13

Let's end the debate! God favors love over faith.

1 Corinthians 13:13 instructs us to live in faith, hope, and love. Yet, it specifically says that the greatest of these three is love.

Love is the epitome of who God is. And it's what He's most interested in developing in us.

May you increase in faith and hope.

But most of all, may you increase in love.

God bless,
J.W.
