Do I Believe to See or See to Believe?

Send us a text

This week, I’m asking a question that’s been stirring in my spirit: Do I need to see something before I believe it—or does belief come first?

Psalm 27:13 says, “I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.” That kind of faith—believing before we see—isn't always easy. But it’s where hope begins.

In this episode, I reflect on what it means to nourish our faith in the middle of the storm, to choose belief over despair, and to declare God’s goodness even when it hasn’t shown up yet. I’ll share the questions I’ve been wrestling with this week:

• Do my circumstances determine my faith?
• How can I believe first, and watch as His goodness unfolds?
• Is God really good, all the time?

If your heart feels weary or your faith feels shaky, I pray this episode encourages you to press in—to believe before you see.

Because God’s goodness is coming. Right here. In the land of the living.

✨ Listen now and be reminded: the reward of faith is seeing what we believe.
