Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Lord, teach us to walk by faith, and not by sight. Help us to understand how important it is to 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. Lord, Your Word reminds all of us who are of the household of faith, that we are not of those who shrank back and were destroyed, but of those who have faith that will preserve our souls. Lord, for those things that we have asked faithfully and are in waiting, helps us to be thankful for those things that you have already given us.
