Walk by Faith not by Sight

The time keeps getting closer and closer. It is crazy to think that in just a few weeks I will be going to Africa for a long time :)
I'd like to pretend I'm a super human Christian and say that I haven't struggled but that wouldn't be true.  I have battled and am still battling fears, insecurities, doubt, I have cried many tears and felt my heart break over and over again. I'm not a super Christian, I'm merely a human saved by grace. I'm walking through a fire, It hurts but it is so good and I'm so thankful!!!  Through this I'm learning in a deeper way how to walk by faith, how God is my everything and how I can truly trust Him with everything, everyone and my heart.  These are things I have known for a long time but as I let the fire refine me and mold my character I'm growing in my understanding and belief in theses things.
It is so easy to pray and get a direction form the Lord and run with it and forget that life is meant to be done with Him not just for Him. But it is important to not just live for the Lord but with the Lord.  To ask how to get there and listen each day, each moment, all the time. It is a gift and huge blessing to listen and walk with God every second of every day.  It is easy to get stuck in the doing instead of being and living but be careful not to be robbed of this great blessing! Walk by faith not by sight every day.
