How are you walking?

For we walk by FAITH, not by sight.  - 2 Corinthians 5:7

In John ch. 4, we read the story of a nobleman whose son was gravely ill.  In this particular instance, Jesus chose not to go to the son to heal him.  Other times, Jesus went to lay His hands on the sick and they recovered.  Why didn't He do that this time?  I think for my sake and your sake He did not go.  There are so many of us who think if only we had the physical presence of Jesus, then we will have the blessings of Jesus.  We say to ourselves, "If only I lived back then."  Or, "Won't it be wonderful when Jesus returns."

We don't have to live in the past or in the future, wehave His WORD today.  And it's just as real and powerful as if He was here in the flesh.  Distance makes no difference.

What are you waiting on before you step out in faith?  It has been well said:  When you can't trace His hand, trust His heart.
