i have been thinking about faith tonight and what real faith is. in the Bible it talks about faith that moves mountains!!!!! i may be mistaken but i dont think the Bible "exaggerates". real faith is one that believes, without a doubt, in the God that can do anything. even moving mountains. a couple years ago i heard a few stories about a guy that had so much faith in God and extreme humility. he was not afraid to look like an idiot if in the end God received the glory! now this man was gifted in healing and so there were a few instances where he healed people in ways that were so crazy that he HAD to have faith that God was going to follow through or else he would have looked like a complete fool! he healed an old woman's heart condition by punching her in chest several times. and another person, in order to allow them to walk again, he slung them out of their wheel chair! i mean i would be terrified that if i slung someone out of their wheel chair trying to "heal" them! i would be so scared that they would fall flat on their face and then have me arrested. i mean this man had amazing faith. now this is not to say that we should go pushing people out of wheel chairs and punching people in the chest. BUT i do believe that God calls us to do things that bring us way out of our comfort zone and require us to have BIG faith! sometimes God is gonna put us in situations where we have to trust that He is going to follow through and give us BIG results that make us fall on our knees in worship!!!!! listen and dont be scared :)

but above all else, i hope that you will be still with me and soak in this truth.

nothing in this world matters but Christ.

only when we accept that and believe it with everything in us will we begin to have big mountain moving faith. the moment we realize that He is the only thing that really matters, suddenly the pride fades away and looking an idiot isnt so bad after all, not for Him at least ;)
