Your presence Divine by C D Swanson~
For we walk by faith, not by sight: (2 Cor 5:7 KJV)
There are days when we could really be sorely vexed by things happening within the scope of our proximity as well as by things worldwide.
My sister is having a rough time as of late and it’s affected her on levels in which she could hardly believe. We lost our mother short of four months ago…and each sibling is handling it differently although we’re all missing her deeply.
It’s faith that keeps us all afloat. When we walk by faith it will circumspect our pathways with a solidity of peace brought about by our trust and surrender in God.
We must realize that a person who is sorely lacking in faith couldn’t relate or understand the ease in which a person can transition from the valley of “woe.” Because a person of faith will always be able to see the top of the mountain from any perspective, no matter the circumstances. We know that His hand upholds us as we begin our journey to the top again…only through His grace and His love can this be accomplished…which thereby of course is called “faith.”
When we have faith things are made “easier” knowing He is with us. Jesus said; faith is like a mustard seed, it’s the tiniest seed of all, but once it’s planted and grown it’s a huge and mighty tree… it is taller than the garden plants. It becomes a tree that is large enough for birds to nest in its branches. (ref to Matthew 13:32) Such is faith and the ability to manifest and understand the ways of the Lord and His Spirit in which we should live accordingly.
In a valley? All you need is faith…and a love for God, and then get ready to climb that mountain!
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1 KJV)
