2 Kings 6:15-17
When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.
“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
We don’t know if Elisha could see with his physical eyes that the army of the Lord surrounded them. But we do know that he looked with eyes of faith.
Having trouble seeing with eyes of faith?
We can echo the prayer of the father in Mark 9:23-24.
“‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for one who believes.”
Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”

Today is my mom’s 60th birthday. I know, I know. She doesn’t look a day over 40. We are constantly mistaken for sisters, which is partially true.
We are sisters in Christ and I am honored to be a part of the legacy of faith carried down from her mom, as well.
This picture is of the three generations represented at the Equip Conference in Orlando, back in July. What an honor to share in that event together, but even more so, to honor that legacy of faith.
Thanks for your shining example of faith and here are 60 things I am grateful for or love about you, which I am sure will make you laugh and cry. #sorrynotsorry
(P.S. I recognize that dad gets credit for some of these as well, but it’s your birthday, so...)
1. Getting over the shock that y’all were expecting even though you weren’t done with school.
2. Eighteen hour back labor to deliver me.
3. Giving me the middle name Joy (not that I dislike Michelle).
4. Graduating from college with a baby at home.
5. Putting up with me not sleeping through the night until I was 11 months old.
