Faith

Faith is a gift from God. He gives it to everyone. Grow your faith by using it. Use it for the things that really matter, your health and the health of the ones you love, your peace and the peace of the world, and most of all for your salvation and the salvation of others. Faith is a terrible thing to waste.

10-8-2014      Mark 4:30-32
S.       30 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? 31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
O.      Jesus uses the mustard grain as an example of how a small amount of faith can become massive.
A.      My faith has the potential to become very strong. I will think, plan, study and live under the direction of faith. My faith comes from God so I will ask God to help me learn how to use it.

P.       Father; thank you for the faith you have given to me. Open my understanding as I grow in grace and teach me the perfect way to live…….the way that will be pleasing to you. Amen.
