Standing or Wavering

Luke 24:39
39Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.

Jesus had appeared to the disciples after he rose from the dead. The disciples were in a locked room and there was no way anyone could enter. Jesus did. The disciples were shocked. But Jesus told them not to be. He did exactly what He said He would do. And His proof were the scars left on His body from being nailed to the cross. The Lord is not a man that He should lie. He told them that in 3 days He would take the keys to the kingdom. He took the sting of death from sin away from Satan. Jesus also said they would see him again. We don't always believe the Lord when He tells us He will do something. Our problem is doubt. We are amazed when what He said comes to pass. But why? He can't lie so if He made us a promise, no matter what it is, He will make good on it. Our problem, sometimes we don't believe that it was the Lord that spoke to us. Our own faith is often in question. It just means we need to spend more time reading and studying His word daily not just on Saturday or Sunday so we can learn His promises and handiwork. What promise did the Lord make to you? Are you standing or wavering? Do you trust His way or your own?
