067: Hope in the unseen | Hebrews 11:1

Faith gives us hope because we can see God moving in every area of our lives.

Faith is hard to wrap our minds around. You can see it. You can hold it. Yet, our One Verse for today, Hebrews 11:1, tells us that we can actually have assurance and hope in our faith. That sounds strange, doesn’t it? How can you have hope in something you cannot see? And since faith is trusting in a Person and stories of this Savior that are thousands of years old, how can that bring hope for the future? It’s hard to explain, but once you have deep faith, it is as real as anything else in life. How does it bring hope? Because our faith allows us to see God working in our lives, the good and the bad. And if we can’t see God moving, we know to look for Him. That is what Faith does in our lives. It allows us to see where God is moving so we can join Him in the story.

One Verse is a short, daily devotional designed to help you grow closer to God through less than 5 minutes a day, 5 days a week.

Consistency trumps intensity. When it comes to working out, eating healthy, or managing our finances, consistency always trumps intensity. We reach our major life goals through small, purposeful steps taken daily. The same is true in our spiritual lives. I truly believe you will grow closer to God by spending just 5 minutes a day with Him versus cramming in an hour once a month. The One Verse Devotional is here to help take away the barriers of spending time with God. Now, during your workout, drive to work, or even shopping for groceries, you can invest in your spiritual life.
