Faith and Sight:

   The Christian who is walking by sight is always evaluating the circumstances.    In fact, it is difficult to help such a one, because all conversation must revolve around how bad thigns are and what things ought to be done.  There are no ears to hear anything about faith or of relying on God, because things appear to be so bad.    Such Christians are always living in trauma.  The Peace that can be theirs is never experienced because they are so convinced that the thing before them must be changed.  To them, the change eviddences God's attention.  His Word is not enough.    The Lord does not work that way.  He is seen by faith.  His timing is different and His methods are far from anything we would design.    Soldier of The Cross, knowing God means looking at Him.    Looking at Him means looking away from the immediate, to gaze upon the eternal.
