II Corinthians 4:18 ” So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

Faith is seeing His light with your heart… when all your eyes see is darkness. The Holiday Season is difficult for many to navigate through. There can be sadness from losing a loved one, contending with our own declining health, or stepping on eggshells around a ongoing family feud. All our eyes see is gloom, anxiety, and pain. But it tells us here to not fix our eyes on the darkness but rather on God’s light. I John 1:5 says that, “God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all.” And when we do seek His light with all our heart, it’s like a lamp shining brightly into the darkness around us…dispelling the somber murkiness.  Or as the great Faith Chapter in Hebrews begins, “Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11:1)
