I Know

I know

“I have not seen the robin but I know he is there because I heard him singing through my window from the tree-top outside.
I have not seen God.  But I have looked at my child’s eyes, and have been overwhelmed by the miracle of unfolding life.
I have watched the trees bedeck themselves with new garbs of green in the spring, and have been stirred by the miracle of continual rebirth.
I have looked at the stars, and have been overcome by the miracle of the grandeur and majesty of the universe.
I know that God exists, because I have heard the song of His presence from all the tree-tops of creation.”
                     Ben Zion Bokser
For me the above is true. I know God exists. I cannot conceive of a universe in which there is no God.
The majority of people through out history have believed in an afterlife and God. I cannot believe they were wrong.
I know for many if not most people it’s hard to believe in someone they cannot see or feel but that is the nature of faith. The writer of Hebrews stating,
“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
The writer defining faith as,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.”    
                                                                                                            Hebrews 11:1.
And that perhaps is the hardest thing to do?
Please think about it.
