Born of the Spirit

I read a quote by Bill Johnson recently: Ignorance asks for understanding; unbelief asks for proof.

I’m finished with the arguing thing. I can no more prove the existence of a loving God to an unbeliever than I can prove there is a difference between green and teal to a a blind man who insists there is no such thing as vision. Some things are spiritually ascertained. To my atheist friends I respect that your conclusion is a logical one for you.

But for me -there must be more than this.  I choose hope. My decision is not illogical, it is a-logical, free from the bonds of mere physical data, but not inconsistent with that which can be measured. For me, the beauty of creation is a road sign, not the destination.

We had a friend who said, “God could perform a miracle right in front of me and I would just look for the wires.”

He’s actually very high-functioning for a man limited to an I.Q. of 160.
