Blessed are those who... have faith and did not see.

Why is it that I need a reminder that God is the great provider? Why does God have to do something so obvious (* or in resent cases- so many things) that it is unavoidable to recognize His grand provision before I can look to him for it? Why is it that God has to demonstrate His infinite love to me before I believe He loves me? Why is it that God has to basically preform a living miracle in my life before I begin to truly have faith in His power and Glory? Why must I be Thomas?
