CRISIS IN FAITH


 Today when I awoke I asked myself ‘Does God really exist?’ Is Jesus truly the Son of God? Faith is believing in what we cannot see. Our world of scientific achievement and personal self seeking often categorizes faith as the crutch of the ignorant and the simple minded. But can I live in this world without God? Why is this churning inside of me propelling me to seek beyond my physical reality to a higher good?

Lord Jesus, reveal yourself to me today. Help me find the truth of Your Being. The prophets spoke of You. Peter, James, and John saw You in Your glory and heard the Father’s endorsement of You. Lord Jesus, I am surrounded by unbelief. My world has made pagan idols of wealth and power and intellectual pursuits. My daily encounters with the wisdom of the world is snuffing out the Divine Wisdom that You have revealed to me in Scripture. Help me, Lord Jesus, to seek You with a sincere heart. Open those doors which will lead me to You. Restore in me the precious gift of faith that has been buffeted and obscured by needless worries and preoccupations. Jesus, reveal Yourself to me as the Son of God and protect that Truth from the assault of evil in its many disguises. Thank you.
