Believing springs from being loved

Morning: Psalms 146, 147; Isaiah 43:8-13; I Peter 2:2-10

Evening: Psalms 111, 112, 113; John 14:1-7

Belief is fascinating.  Religion, science and law all rely on belief of sorts.  Probability and reasonable doubt are about evidence being insufficient to prove something completely, so belief kicks in.  When Jesus invites belief in God, Thomas is skeptical.  Now you may believe, even with no evidence.  Or you may call something ‘evidence’ when others say it isn’t ... you believe one thing, they believe another.  For the record, the saying, “Seeing is believing”, is about knowledge not belief.  When you see, you know some facts.  Belief, on the other hand, springs from the experience of being loved.
