Faith Like a Child

Last night our tender-hearted daughter prayed, "Please be able to find Grandma under the ground and take her to heaven and make her heart beat again."

Wow. She believes in the Resurrection. So do I. How about you? Have you pondered the implications of being raised from the dead?

I have--but not enough.

One day I shall die (should the Lord not tarry...) and one day I shall be raised from the dead. Just like Jesus. Wow.

"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"*

Forgive me, God, for over-intellectualizing my faith. May I embrace the profound mystery that is your gospel. May I believe in things that I can't explain.



*John 11:25-26 NIV
