Recent Life: walking by faith

What does it mean to walk by faith?  We say that we must, but do we understand what it will take? 

Scripture says that we must walk by faith and not by what we can see with our own eyes (2 Cor. 5).  Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.  It is impossible to please God without faith that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him (Heb. 11).  

Walking by faith isn't glamorous.  It isn't a pathway filled with lights and billboards.  Sometimes, the path isn't even paved.  But it has been walked before.  

We walk by faith and trust in the good hand of our Father.  He is our good Shepherd, leading us through the green pastures, the valleys of death and the still waters.  We rest under His care because He is good.  




God is Good!  
There is nothing to fear.  
We walk by faith, not by sight.
