Growing by Faith
We walk by faith, not by sight.
2 Corinthians 5:7
Today’s verse refers to the walk of becoming more like Christ. It takes place when we live by faith. When we judge everything by what we see, however, we will have difficulty growing.
Remember the twelve spies Israel sent into Canaan (Num 13)? Ten came back and said they felt like grasshoppers in a land of giants. Those ten walked by sight. But Joshua and Caleb had faith, knowing that God was on their side. Ten didn’t think God could handle the circumstances, but two knew He is bigger than any situation.
Do you live by faith? If you want to grow spiritually, believe God’s Word and trust Him in every situation.
