Faithfulness (The Fruit of the Spirit in You)

Faithfulness                                                                            Day 75

For we walk by faith, not by sight.

2 Corinthians 5:7

In the movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Indiana Jones, played by Harrison Ford, must pass a series of tests on his way to finding the Holy Grail. One test required that he step out over an abyss with no bridge and no visible way of crossing. The key to passing this test required stepping out with the faith that he would be able to successfully make it over, regardless of what he saw.

We, too, may have times when we cannot see how we will pass our current test or circumstances, but faithfully we press onward. We may endure for days or for years, with nothing left to hold on to except our faith. We may be tempted to give up on God and His promises. Some choose to trust only in what they know or can personally see. It is the act of walking by faith, however, that will guide us through our temporary circumstances toward our final destination.

Let us understand that there are times when being blinded by faith is the only way to see clearly. No matter if the circumstances were created over the course of days or years, let us have faith in our God, whose power extends across eternity. Faith can serve as our compass, whether we are lost or simply trying to make sure we are on course. Let us walk by that faith.
