When You're Not Ready to Believe

Built For A Mission
John 20:19-31

This faith is mine.

Prevenient Grace.
Grace that goes before.

It is entirely possible to have witnessed something miraculous,
and still lock the doors.

"Peace be with you."

As the Father has sent me,
I am sending you.

This is a moment to step into.

Sanctifying Grace, the ongoing work of God in us.

You don't have to be ready. You just have to be willing.

Will you stay willing?

Jesus is not threatened by that.

Doubt is not the opposite of faith.
It can be the very place where faith becomes personal.

The miracle is that He sent them back out.

Is it something we're going to admire?
Or something we're going to live?

Will we stay behind the doors?
Or will we go?
