In today's GB News Daily Reflection, we remember that faith is the very nature of believing things you cannot see, and expecting them to happen or to be real nonetheless.
"Many of us struggle with this as a concept because we surely think seeing is believing. If I can touch it, if I can feel it, if I can see it, it must be true. But these days, when so many things are now fake that we can see, perhaps we can start to see what faith really is. Jesus was explaining this to Thomas.
"We read in the book of John, chapter 20 that he said to him, have you believed because you have seen me? Well, blessed are those people that believe who have not yet seen.
"What does that mean? He means that we're blessed. If we can start to trust and hope what you can't actually see. This hedge, this tree to me, looks dead. I can't see any life on this tree. I think it's finished. It's done.
"And then when I look again. Maybe with the eyes of faith. With the eyes of anticipation. With the eyes of expectation. I can see so much more.
I can see buds of life. Let me see colour as he hope. Of you want to change your perspective, your narrative and believe there is more, I encourage you to look through the eyes of faith."
