I saw none of the other apostles—only James, the Lord’s brother. Galatians 1:19Consider this: James, the brother of Jesus Christ, was a believer. After growing up with Jesus, if anyone had reason to doubt his divine nature it was James! And yet, he didn't. So why would we?
But James was not always a believer was he? Here a brother growing up with Jesus and yet did not believe until after the resurrection? Why is that? Perhaps his own arrogance? His own hard heart? Consider how so many of us can relate then to James. Thankfully that irresistable grace breaks through to our hearts and we start to see with the eyes of faith.
