Is it your belief or your unbelief? Matthew 17:14-21

Good morning friends!  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!
  Did you think about the verse yesterday?  I was hungry-you fed me; I was thirsty-you gave me water; I was a stranger-you took me in; I was naked-you clothed me?  How open is your charity?  Is it only open at your convenience?  Or is it open always, each day?
   Maybe you are in your own storm and you are looking at the clouds, the waves, the violent nature of the storm; yet, where should your trust be placed?  In Jesus' hands.  When Jesus walked with the disciples and they asked why they could not cast demons out as Jesus did, what was Jesus' answer?
   Matthew 17:14-21
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
20 So Jesus said to them, “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
  Our unbelief is what holds us back.  When we hit a storm we doubt!  When our life gets bumpy we try to solve it rather than believing God can fix it.  How much faith do you have?  Do you believe you can heal a person with true prayer to God?  Do you believe you can do all things through God?  Or does your unbelief hold you back?
    Unbelief does not mean you don't believe in Jesus - just as the disciples were told by Jesus - you don't believe you have the power that Jesus had on earth.  You do!  You can heal, you can go forth boldly!  Believe, man, just believe!  Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
