Daily Bible Verse and Devotion – Romans 2:15

Have you ever felt silly for believing in God? Maybe many of your friends have nothing to do with God, or it seems like when watching TV that no one really accounts for God in your life. And so you feel a little silly to believe in Him yourself.

And while the media and your friends might make you feel that way, the truth is, it really does make a lot of sense to believe in God.

They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts. The way their minds judge them proves this fact. Sometimes their thoughts find them guilty. At other times their thoughts find them not guilty. – Romans 2:15 (NIRV)

Today’s verse shows us that we all have a sense of right and wrong that is written in our hearts. Why is that? I believe it’s because deep down, people know instinctively there is a God.

Have you ever thought about how without God, there could be no right or wrong? For example, if we simply evolved, then why do we as humans abide by laws of morality? If we are evolved animals, then why should we just not kill each other as many other animals do? But if there’s a God and a creator, then it makes sense that we should abide by the laws of morality. Because God as the creator has told us in the Bible that human life has value.

This is just one of many examples of why faith in God makes sense. You shouldn’t feel bad for believing in God. God is the reason why we have morality in the first place. So don’t lose heart. Stand up for what you believe and know that faith in God makes sense.
