John 3:9-15

John 3:9-15
English Standard Version (ESV)

  How can these things be?  We are all asking that question at some level, trying to make sense of faith, when the reality is that the root of our faith exists beyond time and space -- in the eternity that God inhabits.  By grace, God entered into our world, taking on human form in Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh.  Jesus pointed to the reality that our hearts cry out for, but it's still something that our minds cannot envelop, for it is bigger than we are.  We have to trust in faith, looking at the evidence we have in the Gospels and trusting in the God who keeps every promise.  God is good and can be trusted, but we have to choose to believe what we cannot grasp and follow the path that leads to a place we cannot see but know in the depths of our souls to be our true home.
