Seeing Before Believing

July 12, 2012 by Fritz

“The queen of Sheba … came from a distant land to hear the wisdom of Solomon. Now someone greater than Solomon is here—but you refuse to listen.” – Jesus (Matthew 12:42 / Luke 11:31)

Why would Jesus refer to an ancient story about a queen who came a long way just to see for herself the amazing things she heard about King Solomon?1

Obviously, Jesus has no problem with those who wanted to see for themselves before believing, his problem is with those who refused to look right in front of their eyes.

Carefree

July 5, 2012 by Fritz

So be content with who you are, and don’t put on airs. God’s strong hand is on you; he’ll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; he is most careful with you. – 1st Peter 5:6-7 (MESSAGE)

Living carefree is a choice
