Hebrews

So I've been asked to write 3 devotions on Hebrews 11. As I've been reading this chapter one verse has jumped out at me. Verse 3 reads...

"By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things which are visible."

So basically faith tells us that something came from nothing. If something came from something then that something could be proven by physical evidence and faith would be unnecessary. After all man can make something from something else. Only God can trully create from nothingness.

This gives me not only faith but hope as well. When things are at their most stressful our creative God can always provide what is needed to accomplish His will. Even if the only option we see is "nothing".

The flesh tries to tell us that nothingness is equal to hopelessness but God says that nothingness is not an obstacle to Him. What a cool God!!!!
