Persistent Faith

    When we are sick or hurting and we want God to heal us, what kind of faith do we have?? Stop and think about it, the woman with the issue of blood spent all she had so she could be healed. But it wasn't until Jesus passed by and she kept pressing through that crowd to touch just the hem of His garment that she was healed. She had that "persistent faith" that we ALL need. If she had given up just because the size of the crowd, then she wouldn't have been healed that day!!!

    God had given me a word a while back and it was this..."If faith the size of a mustard seed can cause mountains to move, then why is it so hard to believe that doubt the size of a mustard seed can cause that mountain to stay where it's at?"  If you have ever seen a mustard seed, you know that they are very small. All we have to do is have faith the size of that mustard seed... I'm not going to lie, it's hard to have faith sometimes. BUT that's when the Lord comes in and does things to build up your faith... 

    I always tell people that "if you are faithful to God, then He will be faithful to you." Alot of people expect God to do and do for them but they never want to do anything for God... That's NOT how it works!!! We have to take that leap of faith and get out of our comfort zone and work for God. The bible tells us that without faith it is impossible to please God... So what's causing you to not have faith? What doubt is standing in your way?

    Examine yourself and be honest with yourself...and with God....
