What a priviIege it is to stay in their beautiful Guest Room. The first time I visited them here, Staci asked me to let her know if there was anything that was missing for a guest to have everything they need for a restful and peaceful experience. The only thing missing was a hair dryer. This time,&nbsp;it&#8217;s there, as well as this stencil drawing just above the closet door, and directly across from the comfy and cozy bed. When I wake up, there it is&#8230;..&#8221;We walk by faith, not by sight.&#8221; 2 Corinthians 5:7.<\/div>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\" style=\"display: inline;\">\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px;\">\nWhat perfect words to see, meditate on, and embrace throughout my day &#8212; especially knowing, that &#8220;walking by faith&#8221; is a journey of tremendous blessing and reward. It is a journey that is exciting, often, life-altering, and mind-boggling.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nWalking by faith and not by sight requires us to go to a place we don&#8217;t know, but one that God will reveal as we walk in obedience to Him.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nWalking by faith means that we continue to cling to the dreams God has planted in our heart, even though it seems those dreams are risky and it&#8217;s taking a long time for them to come true.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nWalking by faith requires a strong determination to follow God\u2019s plan regardless what life throws our way.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nWalking by faith means we may have to do some pretty crazy things. Think about Noah building an ark for a flood when it had never even rained on earth. Think about Abraham clinging to the promise that he would be the father of many nations even though he was childless at the age of 100.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nChoosing the &#8220;walking by faith&#8221; life, means we get out of our comfort zone, willing to let God take our world and turn it upside down, shake it up, and start all over again. And, in doing so, we let God out of the neat little box that we have put Him in, and let Him show up when He&#8217;s good and ready &#8212; with his PERFECT timing.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;\">\nI don\u2019t know where you are on this journey of walking by faith, but I encourage you to take the first step of the walk. That first step is the first step to success. It&#8217;s a decision we&#8217;ll never regret!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15.3599996566772px;\">\n<div data-ft=\"{&quot;tn&quot;:&quot;H&quot;}\">\n<div class=\"mtm\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;\">\n<div class=\"_5cq3\" data-ft=\"{&quot;tn&quot;:&quot;E&quot;}\" style=\"position: relative;\">\n<a ajaxify=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?fbid=10152654018288990&amp;set=a.113067358989.98672.684903989&amp;type=1&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Ffbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net%2Fhphotos-ak-xpa1%2Fv%2Ft1.0-9%2F10898250_10152654018288990_4339497368136080811_n.jpg%3Foh%3Ddfdb6aca25b656ce6c251501163de00f%26oe%3D5531338F%26__gda__%3D1429202841_a62a3b8d48d6a77b4f5c6a875476acb5&amp;size=960%2C720&amp;player_origin=profile\" class=\"_4-eo _2t9n\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?fbid=10152654018288990&amp;set=a.113067358989.98672.684903989&amp;type=1\" rel=\"theater\" style=\"-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0470588) 0px 1px 1px; color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; display: block; position: relative; text-decoration: none; width: 487px;\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"uiScaledImageContainer _4-ep\" id=\"u_jsonp_8_c\" style=\"height: 365px; overflow: hidden; position: relative; width: 487px;\">\n<\/div>\n<p><a ajaxify=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?fbid=10152654018288990&amp;set=a.113067358989.98672.684903989&amp;type=1&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Ffbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net%2Fhphotos-ak-xpa1%2Fv%2Ft1.0-9%2F10898250_10152654018288990_4339497368136080811_n.jpg%3Foh%3Ddfdb6aca25b656ce6c251501163de00f%26oe%3D5531338F%26__gda__%3D1429202841_a62a3b8d48d6a77b4f5c6a875476acb5&amp;size=960%2C720&amp;player_origin=profile\" class=\"_4-eo _2t9n\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?fbid=10152654018288990&amp;set=a.113067358989.98672.684903989&amp;type=1\" rel=\"theater\" style=\"-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0470588) 0px 1px 1px; color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; display: block; position: relative; text-decoration: none; width: 487px;\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 8 of 365 Photo Inspirations: I have the joy of still being at my daughter&#8217;s home in Texas for a few more days. until after our Leadership Summit in East Texas this weekend.
