Walking by Faith

WALKING BY FAITH

We can’t see God, but we can see evidence of His presence.  We can’t touch God, but we can feel warmth and a joy rising up inside of us that has no logical explanation.  In some churches when people cry seemingly without reason, they say, “Oh, they caught the Holy Ghost”.  What they are saying is that they are feeling the presence of God.  We don’t really hear God with our ears, but He does speak to all of us.  Sometimes we hear a soft gentle warning not to go into a place, or we suddenly “remember” something that we have lost, or have forgotten and have been asking God to help us with.  Actually, that sudden “remembering” means that He is helping us.  God is real, and He reaches out to us everyday and in many ways.  The bible says that He is a spirit and that He doesn’t have flesh and bone, so we have to be on the lookout for gentle, unusual things that lead us, or that confirm things for us.  Walking by faith means knowing His word and His will, and going forward with our lives knowing that he is like a blocker in a sport running interference for us and helping us reach the goal that He set for us.  We must pray, listen, wait and walk by faith knowing that we are not alone.
