Believe without Proof

John 6:29 NLT
Jesus told them, "This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent."

I remember an old saying that the proof is in the pudding. I believe it means that you can talk about it all you want but the proof is in the results. If you are making a pudding then the proof of your success is in how it tastes.

So you go to school for years and come out with a piece of paper. That does not prove your success in what you studied. The application of what you learned will bring the success. Many learn but fail using what they have learned.

It is not about proving; it is about believing. And yet many spend their entire lives looking for proof of who Jesus is and proof of what is written in scripture.

With God all things are possible because of who He is and not because of what we know or do.

God is not looking for us to prove He is real. He is looking for us to have faith that He is who His word says He is.

God does not work in fear or feelings. He works in faith.

Jesus will be whatever you need Him to be as long as it lines up with the word of God. With Him the pudding always tastes good. Just believe.
