Great post. I think this all comes down to...Niki, <br /><br />Great post. I think this all comes down to faith. Either you have it or you don't. Either you trust God or you don't. Sadly, some people will never come to fully trust God. <br /><br />Fortunately, God sometimes intervenes in our lives showing us that we need to trust Him. Zachariah did not trust God, and although God eventually gave him a child, he also muted him throughout the child's birth. Not only that, but instead of having faith in God, Zachariah relied on his own worldly knowledge of what constitutes a successful child birth when he asked "How can I be sure of this? I am an old man and my wife is well along in years" instead of realizing that God and only God causes miracles to happen. <br /><br />Maybe that's what we need sometimes? To be completely mute and just trust and believe that God will back up his word and He will carry us through whatever we are going through. We must have faith to believe these things. Most of us will never receive a vision and warning from God, like Zachariah did, that something is going to happen. We simply must rely on faith to have "confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." <br /><br />BrandonBrandonhttp://www.bittersweetfitness.comnoreply@blogger.com
