Eyes of Faith

Our eyes see the hungry lion.
Our faith sees the God who stops his mouth.

Our eyes see the storm that’s brewing.
Our faith sees Christ riding the waves and saying “Peace be still.”

Our eyes see giants in the land.
Our faith sees a land flowing with milk and honey.

Our eyes see a short, corrupt tax collector.
Our faith sees a man redeemed by the goodness of Christ.

Our eyes see a woman touching the edge of a man’s robe.
Our faith sees a woman seeking a touch from the divine.

Our eyes see a man building a big boat. 
Our faith sees God’s hand in the design of it all.

Our eyes see two beams of wood turned into a cross.
Our faith sees hope in the middle of misery.

Our eyes see an empty tomb.
Our faith sees the door to eternity.

“For faith is the assurance
of things hoped for, and the
promise of things yet to be seen.”
