Believe

The more I consider what it means to "believe" the more I am struck by the personal aspects of belief. Belief requires a personal investment and that seems to go against a lot of popular thinking. More and more we are bent toward discovering a path or a process rather than a personal God. Sometimes we don't even realize how selfish our thinking has become. All the while God draws us toward Himself. He has designed us with a need to know Him and trust Him. When we seek to satisfy our need to trust Him from a distance we sacrifice peace.
