Faith

Open my spiritual eyes. Faith cannot see the outcome. We are not sure what lies ahead but we are convinced of the reality of God! We are not sure what the future holds, but we know who holds the future.

Those who do not have the faith cannot see past the physical world around them. We are limited by our circumstances and are blind to what God is doing. Open my Spiritual eyes and see the spititual realities which transcend this world. There is hope in God's strength and in the faithfulness. In that hope we find the strength to Endure.

Faith is never easy. but the more convinced we are of the reality of an all-good, all powerful God the more our trust will grow and the less we will be overwhelmed by our doubts and temptations!.

Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

I read a sign last week that said "Faith is the ability not to panic"

Hebrews 11:6
but without faith it is impossible to please Him for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Sometimes our rewards wont be received until we reach heaven. We will still have trials and tribulations as long as we are on earth, but isn't it great to know we have Christ through it all!
