Matthew 17


Scripture:
Matthew 17:20-21
"Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it move;and nothing will be impossible to you. But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting".

Observation:
what would happen if we all had this kind of faith? Would people be trying to take pray out of our school, or the 10 commandments out of the offical buildings????? Or look at the devastion around us, huuricanes, tornado's, mudslides and fires. I do not think so. When will this generation wake up and see we must give our loves back to the Lord and have this kind of faith. Unforantly it will be once the tribualation comes and it will be too late.

I think the diciples saw this time and time again. They had a hard time believing a normal man could be the Son Of God. Jesus had to tell them over and over again that he would one day be gone and they would have to contiune with out him.
Application:
I will put my faith in Jesus Christ, even when I want to work everything out my self, I will deny myself and follow the way of the Lord. I would love to share the word of the with others through the children in my daycare and interaction with the parents. I pray that they will see Jesus' love through me and my family.
Prayer:
Lord help me stay faithful to you and not the way of the world around me. Help me be an example to my family and the people around me.
