Wednesday's Whisper

2 Corinthians 5:7


 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

Good evening, family and friends....
It's been a few days since I brought some tonic to you, but here I am again. I have a photo to share with you; one I took this afternoon:


This photo speaks volumes to me. I purchased the little shoe at Hobby Lobby this past week and, in case you can't read it, the words "Walk by Faith" are painted on the inside of the shoe. When I looked at this photo, and thought of the verse above, I was overcome with how all the items told a simple story.
The pictures on the right are of my parents when they were younger; and the picture on the left was taken shortly before my husband and I celebrated our 40th anniversary. 
My parents taught me to walk by faith according to the scriptures but, they not only taught it to our family, they lived it in front of us. I started my own walk of faith on May 1, 1965, and ever since then, I've endeavored to follow my Lord. 
My husband and I have walked by faith together for a long time, and we did our best to instill this principle in our children. We have many stories throughout our marriage of walking by faith, and how God brought us through each situation.
My walk with faith continues on even today and, even though I cannot trace God's hand right now as relates to a certain situation in our lives, I am doing my best to trust God's heart.
Wherever you are right now, trust God and walk by faith!
Hopefully, I'll be back tomorrow!
