I wish I could SEE IT.
But if I could SEE IT would it be FAITH?
"Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for
(divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen
[the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact
what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]" (Hebrews 11:1)
Therefore,
If "faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see"~
Why do I spend so much time,
with my eyes focused on 'lil ole me?
Which then fills me with uncertainty,
stealing away any hope~
Then "Me, Myself and I"
find it impossible to cope.
"We" get all anxious and fearful,
running aimlessly in despair~
Seeking out anyone or anything,
to show that they do care.
Then GOD graciously reminds me,
that HE holds me in His palms~
All HE asks is to believe by faith,
so HE infuses me with His calm.
How quickly I get sidetracked,
forgetting HE hasn't left my side~
It is me who usually moves,
In HIM I am to abide.
To fix my eyes on the invisible,
as I go about my day~
Fills me with HIS Hope and HIS Peace,
then I'm joyfully on my way.
I can accomplish all things through HIM,
who infuses me with strength~
HIS love covering this heart of mine,
because HE went to such great lengths.
HE sent HIS Son to earth,
one glorious silent night~
Wrapped up in swaddling cloths,
this Babe came to make things right.
Knowing that my future is secure,
in HIS gift of eternal life~
Believing this truth by faith,
removes any strife.
So thank YOU GOD for this reminder,
YOU Penned in Hebrews 11:1~
Of the assurance of my Hope,
that is wrapped in YOUR BEGOTTEN SON!
FIRST THINGS FIRST~
"Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for
(divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen
[the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact
what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]" (Hebrews 11:1)
Therefore
"STAND IN FAITH"
