Scattered words and empty thoughts
Seem to pour from my heart
I’ve never felt so torn before
Seems I don’t know where to start
But it’s now that I feel Your grace fall like rain
From every fingertip, washing away my pain
I still believe in Your faithfulness
I still believe in Your truth
I still believe in Your holy word
Even when I don’t see…I still believe
Though the questions still fog up my mind
With promises I still seem to bear
Even when answers slowly unwind
It’s my heart I see You prepare
But its now that I feel Your grace fall like rain
From every finger tip, washing away my pain
The only place I can go is into Your arms
Where I throw to You my feeble prayers
In brokenness I can see that this was Your will for me
Help me to know You are near
’Cause I still believe….

Jeremy Camp sings, “…‘cause even when I don’t see, I still believe.” How about you? It can be a struggle sometimes, agreed? But our believing is not now, has never been, and never ever will be, based on what we can ‘see.’ Our believing is based on the One Whom we believe and on Him alone.
…for we walk by faith, not by sight
2 Corinthians 5:7
There is no doubt that our God wants us to believe Him with all of our heart and trust that everything He has promised will come to pass…amen? He has given us, through His power and outlined in the Scriptures, ‘all things that pertain to life and godliness’ so that we can know Him and His promises.
His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness,
through the knowledge of Him who called us to His own glory and excellence,
by which He has granted to us His precious and very great promises,
so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.
2 Peter 1:3 and 4
Our knowledge of the Scriptures is constantly growing as we faithfully read and study them. Based on all that we learn about our Great God, His Will, and His desires for His people, we can take a firm stand on His promises believing Him and knowing by faith that they will come to pass.
What are some of the things that we are to believe?
- He hears our prayers
- He heals our bodies
- He comforts our hearts
- He never leaves nor forsakes us
- He watches over us
- He guards us
- He prepares a path for us to walk
- He lovingly reproves and corrects us
- And…His faithfulness, His truth, His Holy Word
I still believe in Your faithfulness
For the word of the Lord is right and true;
He is faithful in all He does.
Psalm 33:4
I still believe in Your truth
So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him,
“If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine;
and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.
John 8:31-32
I still believe in Your Holy Word
My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to My sayings.
Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart.
For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.
Proverbs 4:20-22
Even when I don’t see…I still believe!
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1
As you (and I) make this our confession, we are trusting (as did Paul, our brother) the One who is Faithful and True.
He has saved us and called us to a holy life—
not because of anything we have done
but because of His own purpose and grace.
This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time,
but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior,
Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life
and immortality to light through the gospel.
And of this gospel I was appointed a herald and an apostle and a teacher.
That is why I am suffering as I am.
Yet this is no cause for shame,
because I know Whom I have believed,
and am convinced that He is able to guard
what I have entrusted to Him until that day.
2 Timothy 1:9-12

Even when I don’t see…I still believe
