Williams Sunday evening, from Mark 6: 1-5 spoke about Jesus returning to His home town to be re- jected because of unbelief. Jesus never worked miracle) to create belief. in .John 16: 12-15 Jesus said Ile had many things to show Itis disciples, but they could not unders- tand, because they saw everything in the natural perpective. As we as Chris- tians move into the realm of spiritual perfection and awareness the spirit of truth will work in our lives. Unbelief and unwillingness delay and hinder God's work- ing. John 20: 11-29 tells of unbelief changing to belief and joy when Jesus appeared to His disciples after His resurrection. in times of discouragement it is good to know the God we serve is able to keep the pro- mises in His word. When we have an appetite to read God's word we will overcome doubt an learn to trust God. July 11 to 22 is Vacation Bi- ble School.
