Christianity isn’t logical. My entire life I have been trying to live in the most logical way. Everything I have done has been because I wanted to make the smartest decisions. I just wanted to live the American dream. Go to high school, college, then get a job. But every day at project searchlight, God has shown me that it’s not how he operates.
Now don’t get me wrong, God is completely logical. But what doesn’t make sense is that he would send his son to die on a cross for our sins. Even less that he would rise from the dead and be inside of us forever. That sick people could be healed, demons could be cast out. Things that I have seen that shouldn’t be able to happen.
Then it hit me, why am I trying to live my life in the most logical way if the base of my beliefs don’t make any sense at all. Jesus didn’t ask me to be logical he asked me to trust in him. He asked me to give up my life and to forget everything I have ever known and follow him. So why do so many of us hold back our trust from God? Why do we still cling to things that make sense in our own brains. All we need is to trust God with everything we have. So when I go home or wherever the Lord takes me in the next chapter of my life, I don’t want to do things based on what seems like the right answer. I want to trust God so much that everything I do involves him. Because the truth is if you believe that God created everything in the universe, then you have to believe that he cares about every aspect of your life.
