Seeing What Eyes Can't

There is more to life than what meets the eye. For that is what faith is.Faith is trusting what the eye can't see.

Eyes see the prowling lion.. Faith sees Daniel's angel.
Eyes see storms...Faith sees Noah's rainbow.
Eyes see giants...Faith sees Canaan.
Your eyes see your faults... Your faith sees your Savior.
Your eyes see your guilt... Your faith sees his BLOOD.
Your eyes see your grave... Your faith sees a city whose builder and maker is God.

The very hands that were nailed to the cross are open for you. hold them..

Once again, Max Lucado just really speaks to my heart. It's so easy to get lost in the day to day routine and lose sight of what really matters and why God allowed you to breathe His air that day. My own thoughts fall so short of the Lord's.

One thing I am longing for is to see things the way that God sees them. To take everything as a grain of salt and know that it is in the hands of my creator. I think things through way too much sometimes and I believe I get lost in that. God is helping me realize just who He is and how He can impact my life, not just impact it, but live it. He is so wonderful to me!

Just a few moments ago I saw something on facebook from a previous teacher of mine that made me so angry at him.. I wanted to say something but I held my tounge because I read a few nights ago that revenge is not mine, it is the Lords. God knows where I am, he knows what I am feeling and I have to allow Him to work things out. Not my own selfish desires...it's definitely a learning process!

G'night!
