Faith Does Move Mountains

That is a truly beautiful story. It is great that the lady was able to convince her assilant that he didn't need to be robbing her. I was brought up in a family that although we weren't really super religious, we were full of faith and we did believe that our faith was one of the things that was able to keep us all together. We lost our father at a young age and while that would crush a lot of people, our family was able to find solace in the fact that our father had gone to heaven and that is where we all aspire to go after our life in this world has come to an end.

I was thinking about this verse yesterday for some reason. I was thinking of it because as you know we are trying to buy a home. I feel at times that it seems impossible because the market is climbing where we live. I keep telling my family if it's God's will, then for some reason I thought "Don't I have faith in God that if it's meant to be and I truly believe then ..." this verse came to mind. Yesterday when my husband came home we talked and he didn't say much but last night we prayed about the whole thing. I liked to hear him say to God "Lord if it is meant to be you will open the doors for the right home and if it's not we will be happy where we are..." My daughter asked God to heal my knee because it's been hurting lately. Anyhow faith is the key issue. I read a court case where a man broke into a home to assault the resident. Well she begged the man not to kill her but if God meant for her to go home then she asked for forgiveness for him and her. The man went crazy hearing this and broke several parts of her body, went out of the room to bang on things but somewhere along this time she had just enough time to escape. The victim during trial had suffered alot of injuries that needed therapy to get back to normal but she got out. The man was also being charged for torture which he argued he didn't want to torture her, but the jury found him guilty. He had enough time to reconsider what he was doing while she spoke to him about God. It was a miracle she made it out. Last night I was debating whether to go to church today since I am not feeling good but my oldest son told me he wanted to go to church today. I thought who am I to say no, just like the woman who was suffering from bleeding and just wanted to touch Jesus' cloak because she knew she'd feel better I thought even though I don't feel good I just need to hear his word and touch his cloak as well. Thank you this confirms that I have alot to give praise to God for.
