Believe Me

Dear Friend,

I’m writing you today because I have felt the uncertainty in your heart. I know the frustration and fear you feel in not knowing the truth. How do you believe something you have no proof for? Why would you risk your life for something you cannot know exists? One of the three greatest gifts my Father has endowed you with is faith; that’s how, that’s why.

Many people, when thinking about faith, only apply faith to religious ideas. However, without faith you would live a life of terror. You have faith in more things than you may realize. Every time you get in your car you have faith that it will serve you well and keep you safe. When you go to sleep at night you have faith that you will awake the next morning. When you eat or drink, how do you know you will not be poisoned? You do not, but you have faith in the people who prepared these for you. Unfortunately, I’ve seen you lose faith in many things over the years. I’ve seen you question your friends. I’ve seen you question your family. I’ve seen you question your own heart. Surely you don’t expect proof from your heart? Yet, you claim to love. How do you know you love someone or something? Can you prove it?

Most importantly, I’ve seen you question me. I know it can be difficult to believe in something you have never seen, but I ask you this: When you feel the breeze bring you comfort, when you see the rain cleanse the ground, and when you lie in bed at night and find peace in such a chaotic world, can you not feel me? Faith is what allows a feeling to become more important than fact. Trust in your heart and you will know faith. Visible or invisible, evident or unclear, have faith in the feelings in your heart and you will know the Truth.

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light. Believe in me and you will have everlasting life.

Love,
You Know Who
