We live by faith and not by sight.

Am not sure how often have you heard of this line. But, among Christians, this is an overused line to encourage one another. It means keep hoping and believing even you don't see anything that supports what you're hoping for. Even if there's no evidence that it still can happen. I think we're more familiar with the saying, "to see is to believe". So, it could be hard to really just place your faith in something you're not sure of, I guess. But, is this something that you would consider when you truly believe that what you're longing for will and can really happen? Maybe just not now but in the near future...? Do you need proof before you can believe something you're wishing for can happen?

When I saw the title it reminds me of the song One Way by Hillsong, since before, I'm active to our church assembly but not now. I don't really believe on the saying "to see is to believe", my high school teacher taught me that not all things should be seen by our eyes before we believe.

Often in our lives we hear something time after time we strt to think it may be true. Sometimes in our lives even though we know something to be right we still have to do it to make sure. This saying has been true in my life and is found in THE BIBLE alound with many other saying that I hear, but many other things I hear is not found. Its better to see and know THE BIBLE for your self to know what to say when these this come up. We believe if we do right we will recieve good and when we do wrong we will pay the consequences. We belive if we treat our spouse right they will treat us right, if we pay our bills we will have good credit, if we go the speed limit we will not get pulled over ect
