The Tragedy of Unbelief


God delights to give. The tragedy of unbelief is this: God gives things like food and clothes to support this life, and everybody grabs it up. But when He freely gives forgiveness and salvation for the sake of Jesus, unbelief says, “No thanks. I have what I want, and I don’t want any more.” Unbelief takes the little gifts and leaves the big, blood-bought ones behind.
