So This Guy Jesus...
So this guy Jesus once said, "Don't be afraid; just believe" (Mark 5:36, look it up). Today, I kept coming back to this verse. I kept thinking and thinking about it. It seems so simple. Just a short 5 word sentence with no hidden agenda. It means what it says. But if it is so simple, why then do we, as Christians, make it so hard? It seems like this part of this verse is kind of one of those "easier said than done" sentences, like "I can put together a car" or "I can ace this chemistry test." All it takes is faith in Jesus, but we constantly find ourselves second guessing ourselves and Jesus. We find ourselves thinking or saying things like, "But what if God can't" or "There is just no way." But right after Jesus said this, you know what he did? He raised a girl from the dead. Pretty powerful stuff right? Inside our hearts, no matter the questions in our head, we know that God can do anything; he is, afterall, God. According to Jesus we just have to believe. If we believe in Him, anything is possible. And without Him, nothing is possible.
