Clear Vision Faith

Have you ever tried to walk through your house in the dark --confident you know where everything is -- only to stub your toe on a chair that never moved? That’s what life can feel like without clear vision. Ouch!

The Bible puts it plainly: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” (Proverbs 29:18) Vision isn’t about having all the answers -- it’s about knowing Who is leading.

Without God’s vision, we drift. We wander. We hesitate. James describes it well: “A double-minded person is unstable in all they do.” (James 1:8) When we’re unsure of God’s direction, indecision creeps in. We second-guess, stall out, and let life happen to us instead of living it on purpose.

And when vision fades, time gets wasted. Opportunities pass us by. We start coasting -- and coasting, as we all know, usually leads downhill. God didn’t design us for survival mode. He designed us for abundance. Jesus said: “I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly,” John 10:10).

A lack of vision also creates division. When we don’t know where we’re headed, others are quick to suggest a route. Only God can define our purpose because He’s the One who created us. When we follow His vision, unity follows -- within our hearts and in our relationships.

And then there’s collision. Without direction, life can feel like a bumper car ride -- relational bumps, financial crashes, emotional pileups. Paul warned that ignoring God’s guidance can lead to shipwrecked faith. (1 Timothy 1:19) God never intended us to wander into walls.

Clear vision doesn’t come from panic or pressure. It comes from prayer. From listening. From choosing faith over fear. When our conscience is guided by faith, God sharpens our sight.

So today, let’s ask God to adjust our lenses. To help us see clearly. To show us the next step -- just the next one.

With His vision, we walk steadily.
Without it… we’re just walking in the dark.
