I Am: a blessed God

I AM: a blessed God by ric gustafson


Things will happen in our lives where we begin to ask why. The walk of faith is not comfortable. Jesus asks us to believe even though we cannot see. The word blessed means contentment and satisfaction. A call to faith is believing without outward confirmation. This call of faith leads to joy and happiness.
Sometimes Jesus does not answer right away and it feels like we are in darkness. In our waiting for his answer, he wants us to trust him in the darkness. He wants us to wait on him and that is hard sometimes.
When Jesus's light shines in our darkness, we will have a deeper intimacy with him. It is not easy to believe what we can not see. We make the mistake of demanding God for an answer now.
God calls us to believe even in darkness. He promises that his light will shine what we cannot see.
