Habakkuk 2:1-4

"but the righteous will live by his faith"

What does it mean to live by faith? Does it mean you blindly believe there is a God? Does it mean that nothing else matters besides faith? Does it mean that faith gives meaning to life? Does it mean that faith is at the center of your life?

Let's consider this from another perspective. We know what it looks like when someone lives by appearance. We know when we see a life driven by greed. We know when a person's life is dominated by sports, career or possessions. We recognize when an individual's life is being driven by these things because of where their lives are centered. A life being lived by faith has the same sort of centering. There will be other activities and interests in life, but it is faith that is at the center. Is your faith at the center of your life?

  1. I appreciate Ken's comment about comparing "living by faith" with "living by appearance." I pray daily that God will help me to center my life totally on Him and His will for me.
