Faith Is a Powerful Thing

Freedom from worry is but a belief away.
Allow yourself to trust him with all your heart.
Impossibilities do not exist where faith abides.
Take the leap with absolute certainty.
He will catch you in his nail scarred hands.

Ironclad is promise of the word through faith.
Speak, not that he can, but that he will.

Awaken the power freely given.

Purity, not size, of the mustard seed is the key.
Omnipotent is the one who will move the mountain.
We must train our minds to accept his infinite scope.
Even that we may claim the asking as assurance.
Rejoice then and be thankful at the asking.
Fall not into habits of maybes and false hopes.
Unleash the miracles that lay thirsty for a single drop of pure faith.
Let God work through you, as is his will to do.

Take a moment to read the Gospels.
How many times did Jesus tell the desciples to ask and believe?
It is sometimes the simplest thing that is the answer to the seemingly impossible problems.
Not that we may boast, but that he may be glorified.
Glory to God in the highest.
