“O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!” Luke 24:25
In many accounts of the time after his resurrection, the disciples did not at first believe that the Lord had risen. Even though they had seen Him perform miracles, when He walked the earth, and they had gone through times that he himself had foretold them, they still didn’t believe the resurrection had taken place. It often took hearing his voice or seeing Him perform some familiar action for them to believe. Unbelief can blind us to the Lord’s work, but trusting God means looking beyond what we can see to what He sees and is doing. Had they believed the words of the prophets, they most likely would have anticipated the Resurrection and saved themselves from the sadness and sorrow of his death. We also must build our belief. We must construct our faith so that it will grow and not be stunted in growth. We must keep on praying, keep on meditating in His word and never give in to fear and doubt!
PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
