Hebrews 11:1-7 Tree of Life Version (TLV)
Recently on our Alaska vacation, John and I spent a great deal of time admiring God’s creative handiwork from afar. Everything within me wanted to get close and enjoy it, but that was not possible. So, I just kept my eyes focused on enjoying what I could see and basking in the revelation of God’s glory despite the distance.
Today’s Scripture continues the passage I taught on yesterday at C2C. If we desire to please our Heavenly Father, every child of God must take an ongoing spiritual journey of faith. Faith joins assurance with anticipation; a state of certainty with uncertainty. We believe that everything God tells us is true. For these giants of faith listed below, we can see they trusted the Father. As children of God and disciples of faith, we must live each day knowing it is but a piece of the greater reward God will reveal one day. God is a Rewarder of those who seek Him.
