I Once Was Blind but Now I See
Life with God really isn’t as complicated as we sometimes make it. At its core, it’s two things: faith and love. Jesus summed it up in Matthew 22: “Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself.” That’s the foundation. Everything else is just home décor.
Hebrews 11:6 reminds us that “without faith, it is impossible to please God.” Parents light up when their children trust them, and in the same way, our Heavenly Father smiles when we believe Him — even when we don’t yet see the full picture.
Here’s where faith flips the script. The world says, “Seeing is believing.” God says, “Believing is seeing.” Big difference. Some of life’s greatest moments will only come into view after we first take the risk of believing.
Think about it — every invention, every milestone, every “aha!” moment began with someone who believed it was possible before there was any proof. Faith is the bridge that carries a dream from our hearts into our hands.
I’ll be honest — there have been times when I laughed at God’s plans for me. Out loud. With a “But, Lord, there’s no way that can happen!”
But then He went ahead and did it anyway. And all I could do was laugh — only this time, through tears of amazement. Faith has a way of turning our “never” into “look what God did!”
So what about you? What dream keeps nudging your heart? The one that feels too far, too big, or too risky? Maybe it’s restoring a relationship, starting a ministry, writing that book, or simply forgiving someone you thought you never could.
The good news is faith isn’t about leaping tall buildings in a single bound. It’s about taking the next step while trusting God to handle the outcome. When we partner with Him, our goals stop being mere ambitions — they become acts of obedience.
Faith is believing what we can’t yet see, trusting that God is already at work in the unseen. So let’s get that believing in gear — the seeing will follow. And when it does, you and I will have a front-row seat to the goodness of God.
Trust God with the unseen, and watch Him turn your ‘never’ into ‘look what He did!’
