Homeless people have more faith than the most famous Christian.
- They do not worry about their present because they see their future.
- They see themselves eating their next meal.
- They see themselves listening to My voice and getting directions.
- They see themselves living in Eternity with Me.
Children, I tell you to have the faith of a mustard seed, and you will see the value of the green leaf on a tree.
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew 17:20
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away. 22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. Mark 11:21-22
Make straight paths for your feet.
12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; 13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. 14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: Hebrews 12:12-14
Remember the Lily that gets trampled upon in the valley and still shines forth as pure gold.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Matthew 11:29-30
My Thoughts
Sometimes we are preoccupied with agenda and not the heart of God. Have we been looking at things and not seeing the clear picture? God want us to see the picture He paints not the one the world shows.
Good can Come out of Bad
The thief on the cross with Jesus no doubt spent his entire life in darkness. It only took one moment for him to see light in a dark world. When he repented of sin his whole life changed. He must have said, “I can see clearly now. My eyes are not focused on the outward show.”
32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death. 33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left. 34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. 35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.
36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, 37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself. 38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. 39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation? 41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. 42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. 43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Luke 23:32-43
