"We walk by faith, not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7.
A short verse with a powerful punch! I praise God this morning that He is more than what we see Him to be in our limited perception of Him. To walk is to follow a path continuously until we reach an intended destination. Along our walk our destination is not in sight but we know by faith we will eventually arrive. Our pilgrimage towards God is the same way. If we are allowing Him by our faith to lead our walk He will guide us to that perfect destination. If we keep our sights on Him we will always walk by faith. During this season our limited sight shows extreme challenges but the choice to walk by faith instead of sight is one that God both blesses and rewards. God has both elected and ordained this season to bring Him the most glory. Thank God for being so much more than our perception. Only through suffering can we see certain aspects of God! Remember, the presence of Light illuminates more brightly in the dark!
What does your view show in your life today? What is your perception of God in your present trials?
The beginning of 2008 God inspired a family ministry called Emerging Life Ministries. At first it was more of an idea than reality but He is gradually unfolding His purpose for this ministry. May He emerge more deeply in your life through this ministry. Visit the complete website at www.emerginglifeministries.net

Brenda,
I am so glad to see you doing this.
I will be following your blogs. I know God has lead you to do this and I pray that through him you can guide me and others.
Love you,

Brenda,
Today my view and perception of God shows four laws of happiness and success: (1) Count your Blessings (2) Proclaim your Rarity (3) Go another Mile and (4) Use wisely your Power of Choice. One more law to fulfill the other four is do all things with love...love for yourself, love for all others, and love for God.
I can't wait for ELM to get into full swing. This is going to a powerful ministry.
Love Ya Sis.
Beth
