About God

About God
“Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole  duty  of man. 
For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.”
Ecclesiastes 12:13,14 

Here is I believe a simple truth. I as an individual can present what I believe about God from now to the day God calls me home. I can put all the proofs I can muster out there for people to read. And I know despite all that I do there will be people around me and people who read the blogs I post that will not believe in God.
The writer of Hebrews more or less admits to this, noting,
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek Him.”
                                                                                                       Hebrews 11:6.
Faith defined as,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” 
                                                                                                                           Hebrews 11:1.
I think that’s the hard part. Believing in what we cannot see. Yet it is a requirement of God that you believe in Him without seeing Him.
That’s not to say we cannot see his handy work all around us. The psalmist wrote,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
                                                                                                                                   Psalm 19:1.
One just has to look at the perfection of the world around us to see that there has to be a creator of it all.
Do you believe?
Please think about it.
