week 2

Last night i went out to visit this dude i know from Snooker. The one i had earlier shared my faith with. Him calling it blind faith. Last night i then gave him my snooker example.. the one where say you know someone that is able to pull off at least 30points in a game..and the next question is..do you have faith in them to pull off at least another 30?

Is this still blind faith? You've seen the evidence for it all. One of my friends there understood where i was getting at though.

How about trust then. Is that much difference to having faith? I asked him if he ever had faith in somebody or trust and he said he never had it. I thought it was pretty sad to hear that (but this was his point of view of course). In my position for my very close friends I have trust in them as ive known them well enough to put my faith and trust in them not because I want to see something happen but because I know it will happen through experiences with them.

This is why I still believe.

i've been encouraged by how you hang out with your non-christian friends and use relevant analogies to tell them about Jesus. keep the faith!
