Many people accuse Christians of knowing with certainty because of their belief in God. But those that accuse Christians of this themselves claim that we must be uncertain. How can we be certain we are uncertain? Most scientists agree the universe had a beginning and most scientists agree the universe has order and intelligent design. So where is this God they ask? Look at all the evil in the world, they say, how can a God you claim to be so good allow such evils? There is no God, they say, because we cannot see Him. And Christians know that we are the Mystical Body of Christ and therefore when people see us they are to see God. We are the face of God, we are the hands of God, we are the feet of God. But so many Christians are walking around today asking for healing before they can serve, “Lord heal me!” And this is their sickness: never serving because they feel inadequate until they know for certain they have been healed. They worry and they are anxious. But does the Face of God droop with worry? Are the hands of God idle? Are the feet of God complacent? No! The face of God is Light: the Light of truth, of Justice, of Righteousness, of Mercy, of Holiness. The hands of God create all things out of nothing. The feet of God are the good Father Who runs to the prodigal son. We who deny Jesus also deny the world His love and mercy and therefore we deny the world the God they are so uncertain about.

Do not be arrogant in your weakness. Who can know the mind of God? Humble yourself. Submit. Say, “Here I am, Lord, send me!” and do not worry how God will use you because with God all things are possible. God is in control.
