Faith is to believe what we do not see, and the reward of faith is to see what we believe.

The thought behind the quote
One of my favorite definitions of faith is, "Faith is...believing that God’s way is better than yours."
Your FAITH and your VISION are inextricably connected.
Your VISION is very personal because it is the picture that YOU see for your future.
Sometimes we have a faith problem because we have a vision problem. The more clear you are about your vision, the more faith you can activate. What we see in the natural is based on the past (what has been) and the present (what is). God’s Word tells us, “for we walk by faith, not by sight [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises]--” 2 Corinthians 5:7 AMP
Read the full thought
We are to “walk by faith...”, not focused on what has been or what is, but focusing on the future (what is possible) based on God’s promises!
Faith is...believing what we do not see...the future based on God’s promises.
The reward of our faith is we WILL SEE what we believe based on the VISION we have of our future!
What are you VISIONING/seeing today in and for your future?
Believe God for IT!
Take ACTION today towards IT!
Your REWARD...His promises for your future...are on the way!

It's knowing and believing that at the end of the day, season, relationship, job or any transition that takes place in our lives...that He is working all things together for our good and that it is the will of God that our rhythm of life produce HEALTH,BALANCE and GROWTH.
