AFaith is being sure of the things we hope for, it makes us certain of realities we do not see. Hebrews 11:1-2
I had my two year eye exam last month. I have 20-15 vision and my glasses did not need to be changed. Not bad for an old man. How well can you see? I don't mean with your physical eyes. How well can you see with your spiritual eyes. God has given each of us the ability to visualize by faith a blessing, claim it by faith, then rejoice when it comes. Sadly some Christians are severely myopic; that is they can only see things the way they are right now. They can not visualize a sick person healed, a person overcome in sin converted and living right. They can not see a hyper-critical person with a cruel tongue and mean spirit changed into a comforter and encourager. How well can you see? Do a little Aspiritual daydreaming and ask God to show you some people who are in need now changed by God's touch and grace. Faith is being SURE and CERTAIN of realities we do not see. Ask God to increase your spiritual vision today.

Funny for the week: "Dear Dog"
Dear Dog, I am so sorry about you being sent to the dog pound for the broken lamp which you did not break; the fish you did not spill; and the carpet that you did not wet; or the wall that you did not dirty with red paint.Things here at the house are calmer now, and just to show you that I have no hard feelings towards you, I am sending you a picture, so you will always remember me.Best regards,The Cat
Bonus---------------"Booty" A famous treasure hunter went out one day with all of his diving gear to search for a treasure box that was supposed to be on a sunken ship. He swam around for a while and looked where it was supposed to be, but didn't find anything.When he was walking out of the water, really close to the shore, he tripped on something. He started to dig around it and it was the treasure chest he was looking for.All this goes to prove that booty is only shin deep! Chaplain Barnes
