The Bible is a huge book that drives at a single question: Do you believe this? Your answer will determine the course of your life. The famous eleventh chapter of Hebrews described what the heroes of faith did because of what they believed. Through faith ordinary people, "conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises" and "were made strong out of weakness" (Heb. 11:33, 34). Their faith—not their eyes—enabled them to see that he was doing all things well. And this confidence kept them on the path of righteousness. Again, Ezekiel helps us to see what the eye overlooks. Ezekiel's host asks this question, "Son of man, have you seen this?" He'd heard that question before. In chapter 8 Ezekiel virtually toured the Jerusalem temple that was still standing. It seemed holy. But God allowed Ezekiel to see deeper into its hidden sinfulness. Now the imagery is reversed. Ezekiel sees God's healing river flowing from the temple into the dry land of Israel. If "Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Heb. 11:1), we need to know that God is healing the world even when we can't see it.
