Hebrews 11:2
For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Verse 2 is a continuance of verse 1, which states, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen." So, verse 2 is simply saying that we should be able to look back at our parents and grandparents and see the things that were accomplished by their faith. Why did they have so much more than e have and they made so much less than we make? They had faith. We sometimes focus on where we are. Yet, our elders always looked at where they were going to end up.
So, by faith, the elders obtained a good report. This simply instructs us to look at our elders in the faith and see what they were able to do with the things that they had not seem yet. Faith tells me that, even though I can't see it yet, I can hold on to it. And, I have hope, because I'm looking at my elders how were able to accomplish things because of their faith.
DAILY LOVE FROM HIM ABOVE
