These verses renew gladness within me, today, because i find myself -- as one who lives and believes in The Living Jesus -- to be a recipient of the promised blessings spoken within these holy words of hope:
"Then Jesus told him (Thomas, an eyewitness of the Resurrected Lord), "You believe because you have seen Me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing Me." John 20:29 NLT
"You love Him (Jesus) even though you have never seen Him. Though you do not see Him now, you trust Him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting Him will be the salvation of your souls." 1 Peter 1:8-9 NLT (Written by Peter, also an eyewitness of the Resurrected Lord.)
My Beloved Jesus, i have not yet physically seen You alive again, nevertheless, i totally believe You are! You have opened the eyes of my heart, Lord. And, i am forever a grateful debtor. Amen.
With gladness.
Pastor Kerry Willis
