Ears Just a Floppin’
Hebrew 11: 1
Now faith is being sure of what
we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
NIV Bible
His ears were flopping in the gentle
wind as the old red pickup truck sped by me. Don’t know if he had been on an
adventure or going to one, but it made me laugh to see that big red bloodhound
positioned perfectly in the bed of the truck sniffing the marsh air like he was
the “Top Dog of the Marsh.” His snout pointed upwards baying at the sky---here
I am. He definitely did not have a care in the world just faith that wherever
his master was going, he was going too.
We too are on a journey that is
directed by our faith. Faith
sometimes is the hardest concept to grasp on to. Where does it come from? How
do I see it? How can I have faith going through the misery of life? As in the scripture suggests with our
faith comes hope and the certainty that God will provide our pathway. As
Christians we are taught to have faith, as it becomes our passageway to our
eternal life. Faith may be blind to the unbeliever, but to the believer it is
knowing that Our Master will bring us a peace of mind as we travel the broken
road of life.
Just as that ol’ bloodhound had
complete trust in his master to get him to his next destination so must we have
faith that Our Master will deliver us to our eternal home. Let us grow our
faith in God and remember the ultimate sacrifice Jesus gave for us. And as for that dog in the red pickup
truck, I hope his ears are still a floppin’ in the gentle wind. TOTT
O Forgiving and Loving Father,
We all want to be believers that
Faith alone will achieve our finally destination of eternal life. Our prayer today is one for hope and
peace as we continue to try erasing our doubts about our faith. Continue to
guide and direct our lives.
Amen
Commitment for today: Read the
Bible to expand your faith and belief in God and Jesus.
