When Will You Believe!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! What a great God we have! I was reading in Luke chapter 24 yesterday when a thought began to take shape. Before Jesus was crucified, he told all of his disciples that after the crucifiction, in three days he would rise again. However, in Luke chapter 24 when it actually took place no one believed. The women were the first to arive at the tomb and there two angels met them and told them that Jesus had rose from the dead, but they did not believe.
Luk 24:10
It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother] of James, and other [women that were] with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
Luk 24:11
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

Peter went to see for himself and after seeing the linen lying there, he went away confused!
Luk 24:12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.

Then a third time and this time Jesus decided to go himself.....he appeared to two men walking on the road and carried on a long conversation with them and they did not even recognize him until he broke bread with them later in the night....
Luk 24:29
But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
Luk 24:30
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to them.
Luk 24:31
And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.


Here is the thought that came to me: "How many times must he show himself to us before we believe?"
Every morning and every evening he shows himself even in the simple things such as a sunrise and sunset. In the beautiful trees and the grass. He shows himself in the blessings that he bestows on us. When will we believe! Truly Believe!
May our eyes be opened and may we fully believe!
