Got faith?

We can learn a lesson on faith from the classic Andy Griffith Show. Opie meets a new friend but nobody believes him from his description of the man. He walks in trees, wears a silver hat, has 12 extra hands, and blows smoke out of his ear. Just before Andy punishes Opie for lying, he looks at his son’s sincere face and says the following line:

“I guess it’s a time like this when you’re asked to believe something that just don’t seem possible… that’s the moment that decides whether you got faith in somebody or not.”

Sometimes it is hard to believe that God is working. We’re looking for something. We want to see something. We want to see proof. The truth is… God gives us proof in the little things. God is working. We may not understand how or why at the current moment but God is working in every moment of our lives, even the little moments and the challenging times. Those are the moments when we must decide if we have faith.
