God required me to have faith that He existed, even though I couldn’t see Him. Furthermore, He promised to reward me if I earnestly seek Him. He blessed me with a mom and dad that believed in and taught me to believe in Him and the Bible. When, as a young father and husband, I made a conscious decision to seriously start following Jesus, my life began to radically change. One thing I have learned with absolute certainty; God is trustworthy and faithful to do what He promises. I have witnessed numerous miracles in various forms since my journey with Him began and it keeps getting better and better every day. I thank God that all I have to do in order to experience more of Him in my life is to consistently surrender more of me to Him.
"Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
Lamentations 3:22-23
"Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him."
Hebrews 11:6
