Post published by 1 Tes. 4:3

Faith has feet to go to Christ, arms to grasp Christ, ears to hear God’s word and believe, and eyes to see things far off and invisible. Faith sees heaven, Christ, and our heavenly home.

Faith breaks through with the most piercing beams. Faith sees the past: creation, and the punishment of Christ our surety. It sees the future: resurrection to life everlasting and happiness in heaven. It gives being to things, and pierces through difficulties. When our present estate seems contrary to promise as if God did not care, faith breaks through that. When we die, faith sees life. When we apprehend our sins, faith sees forgiveness. When we are greatly perplexed, faith sees happiness and glory!

A friend of mine once gave me this definition of faith: It is our right response to God's revealing of himself. And if we have the eyes to see it, God shows up everywhere and all the time! :)
