2 Corinthians 5:7.
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.”
I was three months out of high school. My family got into the car with me and took me 600 miles from Southeast Texas to West Tennessee and a small Bible college. Then they got into their car and left. There I stood with a dorm room, a meal ticket, a class schedule, and only strangers around me.
Eighteen months later, I walked down the aisle of a little white church with a girl only months out of her teens, and we pledged to give to each other all our earthly goods. It would have been funny to have interviewed us then about what marriage is like. We went into that marriage by faith. Most of us do.
I, like you, can look back at the end of a long life and tell many stories of times when I walked by faith.
In fact, most of the great things in life came as a result of walking by faith.
Prayer, Lord give me again the courage to walk by faith.
I’m Lonnie Davis, and these are thoughts worth thinking.
