Believe And You Shall See
Today during Easter Mass, our parish priest during the sermon, reminded us how this modern world doesn’t want to believe unless it sees something. The adage we are familiar with is, “seeing is believing”. In fact this is not just a malady of contemporary society, as even St. Thomas demanded visual evidence of Jesus’ resurrection.
When our priest mentioned this, my mind immediately relate to when T. Harv Eker mentioned during one his seminars that I attended, “Believe and you will see”. Although Harv was describing that we should behave as if we are already successful and success will come, as opposed to waiting to be successful before we behave in a successful way.
In my experience too, when we obey Jesus’ commands, although we don’t understand or even before we see the results, the results will eventually emerge. This is exactly all the Apostles and early disciples of Jesus did, while there were being persecuted. Imagine if they decided for persecution to end before they started evangelizing? There would be no Christianity to practice today.
“Trust and Do” should be the motto of all Christians.
