24 Days with Luke / Zechariah
MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️:
Zechariah.
All. At. Once.
An Angel appeared and scared the bejeebies out of him.
This Angel came to give him good news…but it wasn’t enough for him to believe. He wanted and demanded a SIGN. I mean…isn’t an angel (and not just ANY angel, but Gabriel who stands beside God himself) enough of a sign Zechariah!?!
Nope. Z is like…yeah, I’m old. Elizabeth’s old. You gotta do more than just pop in here and tell me all that you just did. You need to PROVE it.
That didn’t end well.
How often are we like him? Hearing something…a promise…an impossibility…a S T R E T C H … and instead of simply believing, we demand sign after sign after sign.
We want proof.
I don’t think that’s really the way faith works.
What did my friend Jim say the other night!?! We want to see to believe when really it’s when we believe we see.
