THE DISPLAY OF FAITH
THE DISPLAY OF FAITH
LIFE is a difficult thing=
But our FAITH can
Make such a difference
IN OUR LIVES
It has in mine and
I FIRMLY BELIEVE
That that is WHY
I am alive today
Why I have LIVED
ALL these years=
My promise=
"To live for my FAMILY=
My friends=
And all people everywhere"
Did you ever notice
How the apostles
Try to SHOO the people
AWAY=who are calling out
To Jesus?
TODAY we read about a
POOR WOMAN=trying to
Calling out for help
For her daughter
"She said='please Lord
For even the dogs
Eat the scraps
That fall from
The table
Of their masters'" Matthew 15:27
This lady is DESPERATE-
She will take anything
Jesus will provide
FINALLY=Jesus is moved
By the woman's FAITH
And says=
"Woman-you have GREAT FAITH-
Your request is granted" Matthew 15:28
And the daughter is HEALED
At that precise moment
Jesus wants us to UNDERSTAND
That the ESSENCE
Of this miracle
Isn't the miracle itself
But the DISPLAY OF FAITH
By the mother
THE DISPLAY OF FAITH!
"If you do not
Stand firm
In your FAITH
You will NOT
Stand at all" Jeremiah 7:9
"He replied=
'Because you have
So little FAITH
Truly I tell you-
If you have FAITH
As small
As a mustard seed
You can say to
This mountain'
'Move from here
To there
And it will move=
NOTHING=will be
IMPOSSIBLE to you'" Matthew 17:20-21
"Therefore=since
We have been justified
Through FAITH
WE have
Peace with God
Through our Lord Jesus Christ
Through whom we have gained
Access by FAITH
Into this grace
In which we now stand" Romans 5:1
My dear friends
Jesus NEVER worked a miracle
Without first
The DISPLAY OF FAITH
It is TRUE in this story
And it is true
In my VERY OWN LIFE
Whatever you are FIGHTING
In your life=keep on fighting
DON'T GIVE UP
And keep on showing
That DISPLAY OF FAITH
BELIEVING in Jesus=and believing
IN OUR SUPREME FATHER!
