Faith not Sight
"For w walk by faith not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7
It is time for us to stop believing the lie that things will always go the way we want them. Yes, we do get what we want at times but if that was the case always, we would never learn to appreciate the process and never need to walk by faith. The process is what God uses to make us. The process develops us and our faith and gets us ready for what we have been asking God for. There is protection in unanswered prayers. God does not give us what we want at times but He always gives us what we need. God does not work everything out the way we think He should, but He works it out for our good (Romans 8:28). It is up to us to see the good in what God does in our lives. "Every good and perfect gift comes from God." (James 1:17) Does that mean you give up hope? No, of course not! It means you have to learn to see things from a different perspective. You have to look for the good in each and every situation. It means we must walk by faith and not by sight!" (2 Corinthians 5:7)
So if you find yourself discouraged today because you can’t see the forest for the trees, and you feel as though God has abandoned you. You feel alone in your relationship. You are afraid and anxious about the next move or even if you are fighting to hold on to your faith. I challenge you today to let go of your expectations. Let go of your own preconceived notions of how it will all work out and trust that God has a plan and a purpose. Follow His promptings and obey His voice and cast all your cares, all your worries, all your fears, all your doubts on God today knowing that He will strengthen and settle you and bring you to an expected end.
