“Sometimes our path grows dim and we cannot think or feel as we would like to
and darkness veils the face of our Lord but even if we cannot see Him we can
look unto Him, face His direction. We may be in a fog or a mist but He will not
fail, though we cannot feel. He is faithful. What matters most is not how
clearly we see Him but our complete dependence upon Him as we look and rest in
His grace!” Vance Havner
My
prayer for you today is that you see with the eyes of faith. He is there
whether you feel Him or not!
Job 33:4
The Spirit of God hath made me, and the
breath of the Almighty hath given me life. KJV
“Every year, Smitty and his wife Martha
went to the State Fair. And every year, Smitty would say, "Martha, I'd
like to ride in that there airplane." And every year, Martha would reply,
"I know, Smitty, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars
is ten dollars." This one year Smitty and Martha went to the fair and
Smitty said, "Martha, I'm 71 years old. If I don't ride that airplane this
year I may never get another chance. “Martha replied, "Smitty, that there
airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars." The
pilot overheard them and said, "Folks, I'll make you a deal. I'll take you
both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one
word, I won't charge you, but if you say one word its ten dollars." Smitty
and Martha agreed, and up they went. The pilot performed all kinds of twists and
turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is heard. He even does a nose dive,
pulling up 15 feet above the ground, but still not a word. They land and the
pilot turns to Smitty, "By golly, I did everything I could think of to get
you to yell out, but you didn't." Smitty replied, "Well, I was gonna
say something when Martha fell out...but ten dollars is ten dollars!"
