"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Impossible for man, Possible for God....

Faith? Yes—the childlike faith that daddies can do anything. True faith, though, has the written promise of God for its foundation. In Hebrews 11:1, we read, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Jesus talked a lot about faith, and throughout the Gospels we read of His response to those who had great faith. ...When we have faith in God, we will find that all things are possible (Luke 18:27). — Cindy Hess Kasper, From "Our Daily Bread" May 9....

Faith.... trusting for things not seen.... I just don't know if I can do that any more. Yet, as I write that I know I can.... it just isn't easy at moments, and right now in this one I am sooo confused, but so tired of fighting it over in my mind and trying to figure things out.... while all the time trusting in God. I just want to Trust and not even fight Satan's whispers in the ear.... Oh Lord give me the strength I need. I do know that things of this earth seem so impossible at times.... but Nothing is impossible for God. He makes all things possible, and good!!

God, give me the faith of a little child
Who trusts so implicitly,
Who simply and gladly believes Thy Word,
And never would question Thee.

—Showerman
