“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for” (Hebrews 11:1-2).
The heroes of scripture didn’t know the ending…they just trusted in the One who wrote their story.
- They obeyed without guarantees
- They walked without knowing where
- They believed God when everything around them looked impossible
Take a toddler. The toddler doesn’t need to know where, what, when – in fact, it would be pointless to explain the details to a toddler. All that the toddler needs is to trust the hand he/she is holding onto.
We are that toddler.
The heroes of scriptures – all they needed to know was that God was guiding them. That was more than good enough.
