Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always. Psalm 105:4

How do I look to the Lord if I can’t find Him? We find the Lord through the eyes of faith. Even if we think that we do not have faith, God will bless our effort to look for Him. What we really need to do is seek Him and He will run to meet us. In this way, we can always be sure that we can always look to the Lord and get His help. The gaze of the Lord is like an endless light, it is strength and power. We gain strength when we know that the Lord is looking at us and cares about our circumstances and trouble. It is so wonderful to know that we have His help when we need it the most.

Faith also comes by thanking the Lord for the gift that we need even though we have not received it yet. We have faith in God because He is a person. God’s face is full of love and tenderness towards us. We always would prefer to look upon a face of love and tenderness when we are worn, weak and weary. Love shines from His face and inspires us when our circumstances change because God cares about us. God knows that we cannot succeed in life or continue in life without His strength and love. We often remember the face of the ones who love us. This is a shadow or an example of God’s face that always beholds us imparting strength and courage for our many problems and challenges.
