SEE...Go
God is asking me to see things a little different lately. See past what is visible and let the unseen settle in. Perhaps I am more able now, to trust what I do not lay my eyes on and see with His eyes....with my hearts eyes. Maybe I can not get so frustrated when I don't see anything happening, yet I can believe in the work being done in the unseen. Maybe I can persevere a little better, while He works in places that are hidden, waiting to be seen at the appointed time...God's time. Maybe I am able to see Him in my days, in my words, in my thoughts, in my sadness. I see needs differently than I did before. I see His provision in the trials and the frustrations. I see His goodness...I see this path that has been carved through my heart and I know that He is here. Faith is to hope in things unseen. Do I dare risk it? Even now? Especially now? I would have to say with a deep sigh, yes. Because I have new eyes. Eyes to see, ears to hear His voice. Thankful.
It can be so hard to see the "behind the scenes" can't it? I wrote about a similar topic this morning as well! :)
ReplyDeleteI have been spending a lot of time reflecting on 2 Corinthians 4: 18 lately and your words just hit the nail on the head. So beautiful, thanks for sharing at FMF this morning.
ReplyDeleteI think to see beyond the visual is something He is calling us all to. Yet it is so hard to walk in the unknown. I pray that my trust will grow and that I will learn to see the unseen
