"We Walk By
Faith, Not By Sight” 2 Corinthians 5:7
This is such a true statement when it comes to
my life. I walk by faith not by sight. To me this means so much more than
simple words can explain. Nonetheless, I will do my best to try to get my
message across.
Two years ago I was attacked by a bacteria ( which doctors have no idea whatsoever what it could have been ) which made my bone marrow swell cutting off the connection of my brain with the rest of my body from the breast down. It took me one week to walk again, with the help of a walker; contradicting medical reports that stated that I was not to walk again for at least a year and a half. Of course they were basing their results only on facts from scientific research. I walk by faith. I walk because God wants me to and allows me to.
Mind you, I still do not feel from my breast down, my legs hurt from inside out. In the winter time or when temperatures drop, my legs feel like they are on fire. If you touch them, they feel cold and I cannot tell whether or not you are touching them, especially my left leg. Science cannot explain this either. According to the results of my MRIs I should be able to feel properly, but I don’t. I walk by faith. I walk because it is God’s will.
If you look at me, you cannot imagine that all of this is going on. I walk. I might lose my balance from time to time. But I place one foot in front of the other and take the steps that I need to take to get me to places. I walk by faith. I walk because God loves me.
My doctors have told me that I am lucky that I am not blind for if I were, walking would be impossible according to their written material. They state that I walk because I can see where I am stepping. I walk by faith. I walk because God is merciful. I walk because I am blessed not lucky.
