Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
John 20:29
Faith is not necessarily based on physical evidence or on seeing things with our own eyes. Rather, it is about trusting in something greater than ourselves and believing in what we cannot see. In my own life, this verse encourages me to have faith in God and his plan even when I cannot see the outcome or understand why things are happening the way they are. It reminds me that my belief in God is not dependent on my circumstances or what I can see with my own eyes, but rather on my trust in His goodness and love for me. It also reminds me to extend grace to others who may not yet have the same level of faith, understanding that everyone’s journey is different and that we all come to faith in our own ways and in our own time.
