Walking by Faith, Not by Sight Through Life's Storms

So I had a couple very serious and candid talks yesterday (one with the doctor) about my treatments and the “alternative” if it isn’t affective. But that treatment part is not really what today is about. What I want to talk about is the faith part. Yeah, we talk about it a lot but it is essential we have it. It’s the core of what makes our salvation possible...Anyhow, my buddy asks me if I was scared if the treatment didn’t work. I replied, “what’s there to be afraid of? What’s the worst that could happen?” He answered, “I guess the worst would be you could die.” Well, I told him because of my faith, that doesn’t scare me at all. If I got to Heaven early, I win! I mean, after all, isn’t that the goal?So here is the question again, how’s your faith?Just as Jesus calmed the seas in the storm around his disciples, He will calm your seas. You just need faith. Are you scared of something going on in your life today, burdened or heavy hearted? Are you battling an illness, or facing persecution, or do you feel abandoned? Does your life seem like a never ending cycle of stormy seas? Does it seem like the promises of God are nowhere close to being fulfilled? Take heart, and have faith in God. Look up with eyes of faith to see things the way God sees them. When you have faith, you can see beyond your circumstances.“for we walk by faith, not by sight.”2 Corinthians 5:7 Be Nice, Grace Wins
