Today we track back a little and review a final part of Hebrews from last week's study about faith. We consider how, often faith is a principle of accepting and trusting the Lord rather than asking for our will to be done.
Dieter F Uchtdorf: The scriptures teach us that “without faith it is impossible to please [God]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is.”
For some, the act of believing is difficult. Sometimes our pride gets in the way. Perhaps we think that because we are intelligent, educated, or experienced, we simply cannot believe in God. And we begin to look at religion as foolish tradition.
In my experience, belief is not so much like a painting we look at and admire and about which we discuss and theorize. It is more like a plow that we take into the fields and, by the sweat of our brow, create furrows in the earth that accept seeds and bear fruit that shall remain.
