Eyes of Faith

Are you looking into tomorrow through the foggy haze of the crystal ball or are you perceiving with the perfect clarity of faith?

November’s Awakening, Day 17

God has made for us two kinds of eyes: those of flesh and those of faith.

 —John Chrysostom

Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it by the handle of anxiety, or by the handle of faith.

But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. Luke 21:14–15 NIV

            Faith sees through the eyes of God not our eyes of flesh. The unknown becomes known, the impossible becomes possible, our inability becomes His perfect ability, and our uncertainty is exchanged for His assurance. With faith, you are not limited to your own talents, abilities, and resources. You have access to Him and all that He is and all that He has, and that’s everything.

            When you’re worried about tomorrow, just remember His assurance to you, “I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.” You’re not going into tomorrow’s battles alone.
