Everything has been so wonderful lately, praise the Lord!Hearing back good reports on prayers answered, whether it be winning shows, finding lost objects or healing the sick; all this increases my faith…faith that the God I serve is the one true God, faith that he loves, and faith that he hears and answers my prayers! Faith is where it all begins.

My pastor had a sermon about faith…he asked what the most important quality a person could have in God’s eyes… and the answer was faith! Training hard means nothing if you don’t have faith that you will get results, and prayers are worthless without faith that they will be answered. So far to say, it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God without it.  Imagine a relationship where you didn’t have any faith in the other person, it would be horrible; love could not florish at all! God is like us in many repsects…

I want to share this bit of scripture with everyone, I pray you will understand the message of what is being said

 ’And He said unto His disciples, therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat: neither for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than meat and the body is more than rainment. Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn: and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than fowls? And which of you taking thought can add to his stature one cubit? If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest? Consider the lillies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not, and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If God then so the grass, whihc is today in the field, adn tomorrow is cast in the oven; how much more will He clothe you, O ye of little faith? And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things shall be added unto you. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after; and your Father knoweth that you have need of these things.

But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you."  Luke 12:22-31
