John 6:20 “But he said to them, ‘It is I; don’t be afraid.'” These words of Jesus may be (probably are) the most comforting words you will hear today, or maybe ever. Our Savior has His loving arms wrapped around each of us and tells you and me—don’t be afraid, I am with you. We must believe those words and our lives will be the most peaceful and contented possible. “It is I, don’t be afraid.” Believe and share!

John 6:11 “Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.” Before Jesus or the people enjoyed their meal, He thanked our Heavenly Father for providing the meal. Jesus’ entire life was a life of teaching. When you eat do you simply eat whatever food God has provided without thanking Him for the food? If you don’t thank Him, you are making a mistake. If you do thank Him and invite Him to join you, you have obediently recognized who has generously given you another blessing. Jesus again teaches each of us. Have a great weekend.

John 4:48 “‘Unless you people see signs and wonders, ‘Jesus told him, ‘you will never believe.”‘ Faith is believing without physical, mental, touchable or any other kind of visible and tangible proof. Isn’t that definition of faith without human proof a little foolish? Can you prove Jesus lived? That Abraham and Lot separated? That Noah built an ark? That the world was created in 6 days? That Jesus lived, died and rose again? That eternity is real? And the list is endless. Faith is that cherished love all believers believe simply because God says so. No proof beyond God’s word is necessary. Is faith foolish? To the unbeliever–absolutely yes. To the faith filled–absolutely the foundation of life. Praise God for faith!
