What does it mean to you whe you read, or hear or even speak the words...
WALK by Faith and NOT by sight?
does it imply there will be seasons in my life where my vision will be... Lost?
where I will have naught to go by BUT my faith?
Does it almost demand that I need to be building my faith at ALL times so that I am prepared
to walk BY it alone
when and if the day should come that...
my vision is blurred
scatty,
broken
confused
or ...
lost
completely
....?
When you get too close to the north pole it freaks out your compass.. and it will spin and throw you in the wrong direction...
did you know that?
unless you are PREPARED.... unless you had studied
you would NOT.. and you would get lost in that tundra
so it is with God...
we must be prepared.. we must HAVE an authentic, real, HONEST walk with Jesus
because the day will come..
when suffering knocks at our door..
when our marriage FEELS broken
or the lab tests come back badly
and the doctor's normal jovial smile has vanished...
or the phone rings at three a.m.
or the flood waters rise...
when we must simply walk,
perhaps even crawl
by that faith
and there will be NOTHING else
not a single other thing
that will get us to tomorrow...
God promises though
His mercies are new in the morning..
so hold on...
don't fear going and forging new paths...
paving new ways you've not yet walked in
getting out of your comfort zone...
shore yourselves up
and be prepared...
to walk that walk of faith..
Jesus MEANT it when He told you in the Word..
HE will NEVER leave YOU
HE will NEVER forsake You..
you .. are... loved
