'WE WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT.' 2 CORINTHIANS 5:7

After refusing to worship idols, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were thrown in a fiery furnace. Sounds pretty hopeless, eh? Not for the God Who specializes in doing the impossible; Who isn't known for business as usual. When men do something spectacular we can detect human logic behind it. But as one author writes: God doesn't build skyscrapers; men do...and they have the touch of human genius. But you can't find a skyscraper and a star. God honored the Hebrew children's faith by bringing them safely out of the fire. The king himself declared, Blessed be...God...who...delivered His servants who...trust in Him...there is no other god who is able to deliver in this way, (Daniel 3:28-29 NASB).

Many people who appears to be carefree, have anxiety only God understands: money problems, employment issues, health challenges and marital concerns. So God says, transfer all your anxieties to me (See 1 Peter 5:7). When you walk by faith you get answers to prayer that challenge human reasoning. And looking back you realize you couldn't have come up with a better solution yourself. Poet Patrick Overton said, when you come to the edge of all the light you have and are about to droop off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things will happen: there will be something solid to stand on, or you'll be taught to fly. Remember, we walk by faith, not by sight. And just when you think you've learned how to do that, you'll face a situation that requires you to learn it all over again!
