"We Walk By Faith and Not By Sight"
2 Corinthians 5:7

(08/28/06)

My little friend Levi Horton brought this verse to life recently while at his dads church

in Galax, Virginia.  Levi is six years old.  He's a little preacher...a good one!  He had told

me on the phone that his papaw Horton had bought a pulpit at a flea market and had cut

it down to his size.  After the first night of the revival Levi was anxious to take me to see

the pulpit.  I held his little hand as we walked up the stairs.  When we got to the top of the

stairs and started down the hall in the darkness I told Levi that I couldn't see where I was

going.  His reply was, "Follow me."  You see, Levi is blind.  He couldn't see where he was

going.  But he knew where he was going.  WOW!  What a lesson.  We can't always see

where God is leading but we trust Him because He knows where we're going.

Thanks Levi for a great lesson.
