No More Buts -- Just Believe

The problem for us is not the believing, but all the added-on doing, doubting, and disputing which we bring to the discussion.

We have what our parents taught us, and what the Word of God teaches us.

We have what the world tells us, and we have what the Holy Spirit tells us.

We have the testimony of a hurried, busy world which declares: "It's not finished."

And we have Jesus, who declared: "It is Finished."

You and I today have a choice.

We can rest in the truth of all that Jesus has done and is doing.

Or we can step around the truth, and keep not believing.

I would read the scriptures, I would meditate on the Word, and yet in the back of the head, I would hear: "But what about . . .? What if? But. . .But. . . But."

There had been so many buts in my life.

There is not but against what Jesus says about us.

There is disputing what the Bible makes diligently clear to us.

We are not called to "But", but to believe.

That's it!
