Faith

A lot of the time these days, my reason persuades me to think that the concept of God as relayed in the Bible cannot be true.

And then a lot of time these days, my heart sorta smiles and says, 'But maybe...'

There is no way to prove God exists, and there is no way we can know with absolute certainty that He doesn't.

Today, though, I've been reminded that so often in life things happen at just the right moment, right when it needs to happen most, and it does seem awfully well orchestrated... maybe it's God?

Today I'm thankful that I was raised to believe in God, even if I'm not sure anymore, and I'm thankful for the way things always seem to work out for the best - thanks to God, I think. Even if it isn't thanks to God, I still give my thanks to him, because who else is there to thank? Just when what you need comes to you just when you need it most, that's something science doesn't explain... at least not satisfactorily. It sounds a lot like everything working together for good for those who love God, at least to me.

I'm thankful for my reason which gets me pretty far, and I'm also thankful for my heart which carries me the rest of the way.
