Topic: Everyday Faith

We hope and trust in many things. We use faith and we trust in common everyday things. We do not realize we use faith and trust every minute of every day. Every bite of food we eat, we eat by faith, hoping we do not get poisoned. Every pill we take, we take by faith hoping we do not have some kind of reaction to the medication. We trust the pills we take are made to stringent scientific standards. There isn't anything we do during the day when we don't use faith. When we walk outside, we have faith some weather phenomenon will not sweep us away and kill us. When we drive our car we have faith we will not be in an accident. When we turn on our TV or an appliance, we have faith the TV or appliance will not start a fire. When we get out of bed in the morning we have faith the floor beneath us will hold us up. When we turn on our electronic devices we have faith all the components will work as expected. When we read a newspaper we have faith the ink in the newspaper is not laden with some kind of poison. The fact is, for people who think they doubt or who think they are skeptical, they have faith just like the rest of us. The fact is, we all have faith and we all use our faith. We could not easily survive or get along in the world without faith. The most important question is, will you just put your faith in temporary breakable material things, or will you put your faith in God who is everlasting?
