Why Do Peaches Have Fur?

"Grammy, why do peaches have fur?"

 As soon as we start talking, we start asking, "Why?"

Before I accepted Christ, I had lots of "whys": 

• “Why do innocent people suffer?”
• “Why do evil people prosper?” 
• “What happens to someone who never hears the Gospel?”

But some answers are too big for our finite minds to grasp, so I made a choice to accept the Lord anyway. And I began learning how to “Trust in the LORD with all [my] heart and lean not on [my] own understanding” (Proverbs 3:5).

I’m still learning how to do it…learning that we Christians “don’t live by explanations, we live by promises.” *

“Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see” (Hebrews 11:1).

I don't have answers to all my questions, but I serve a God Who has every answer and He tells me to trust Him.

*Warren W. Wiersbe, From Worry to Worship, p.14
BTW: According to what I've read, peach fuzz keeps the peach from bruising as easily as the nectarine (which has no fuzz) and it helps prevent bugs from eating it....I guess they don't like being tickled.

This devotion addresses some of the questions I had before accepting Christ: Are There Many Ways to Heaven?
