“Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see.”
Hebrews 11:1 NLT
Faith sees what our natural eyes cannot see. It is a tool of the Spirit. It is a navigator. It homes in on the promise of God’s word in our heart. Gods word is it’s fuel. Much like a homing missile but much better. It is not destructive but the bringer of life.
It is important that we know how to work with faith. Seeing the promise does not allow us to race impatiently towards it. There is a process, a journey towards it and it’s fulfilment.
It is almost like a quest or a treasure hunt. You follow the clues along the way and the hunt develops patience, persistence and determination in our hearts. At the same time the patience teaches us to hear and know God and His ways. His ways are holy and true. They can be trusted and must not be replaced with our immaturity and impatience. The result is peace.
Enjoy!
