Seeing is believing -- a maxim tried and true for most situations. Yet, Jesus upbraided the disciple who failed to believe until his eyes had seen his resurrected Savior. Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed, John 20:29.

Which Way Is Up?
Isn't that the question of the day -- when all that we knew and considered routine a few months ago is now being upended?
