As we move forward toward the Fall Holy Day season, let us consider the exhortation to "walk by faith and not by sight". How do we do that? To understand how to do that, this message will look several biblical examples, beginning with Abraham, the father of the faithful, to see what we can learn from them. We will see that a recurring theme is that we must not look at the surrounding physical circumstances, but install we must look at promises in God's word.
