What should guide us in our daily life...our "sight" or our "faith"?

VERSE:

2 Corinthians 5:7

We live by faith, not by sight.

LESSON:

This very short verse is only a part of a larger lesson about the differences between our earthy (worldly) nature...and our heavenly (eternal) nature. If that interests you...turn your Bible to 2 Corinthians 1:1...and begin reading. For today's lesson...I just wanted to give you this short "sound bite". Try to memorize the words...and the Chapter:Verse number. There will be days in your school life when knowing this verse may come in handy. The question of the day that this verse asks us is: Should we live our lives by the example of those whom we see [by sight] around us...or should we try our best to live our lives [by Faith] in what we have been taught by Jesus and by God? [How the Bible tells us we are to live]. Think about it for a short minute. You already know the answer in your heart. We are to live by faith.
