The Daily Verse
My good friend Kat Davis has been doing this thing called The Daily Verse for years now. We were just punk kids working at ForeFront when she started emailing her friends a verse for the day with her commentary. Well, her list grew and now has over 2000 subscribers through www.thedailyverse.com. Here is today’s verse. I encourage you to check it out and subscribe!
…for we walk by faith, not by sight.
2 Corinthians 5:7
If we responded to what we see with our own two eyes, there are time where we’d probably consider our fate grim. However, we have the ability to look through the eyes of faith – see the hope, the intricate plans and the intentional work of our Father in our lives and those around us. intentionally look at what’s in front of you today with your own two eyes; then do the same thing, but look at everything through the eyes of faith. Stay there. Walk using that vision.
I can’t tell you how much I needed to read that today. My husband and I are going through some transitions with his career plans that have us a little rattled. The controlling part of me desperately wants to be able to see what lies ahead and be able to plan for it. If that luxury was always available, I would never have reason to walk by faith, and I would limit the amazing things God can teach me when I look at life through eyes of faith.
