Daily Thoughts 2-20-2017 Mark 9:22b-23

"But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us." Jesus said to him, "'If you can!' Everything is possible to one who has faith."" ‭‭Mark‬ ‭9:22b-23‬

"If you can!", it is Jesus's response that got my attention this morning.  How many times do we come to Jesus with the same kind of question.  Nothing is impossible for God.  Jesus tells us it is faith that we need.  I like the fathers response to Jesus.  "Then the boy's father cried out, "I do believe, help my unbelief!"" Mark‬ ‭9:24‬.  As we journey with Christ our faith increases and are unbelief decreases.  Spend time each day and like the crowd be amazed.  When was the last time you had a face to face with Jesus?  It is a great way to start the day.  "Immediately on seeing him, the whole crowd was utterly amazed. They ran up to him and greeted him."
‭‭Mark‬ ‭9:15‬

Dear Lord Jesus, each day brings about new opportunities to increase our faith.  Help us spend time in Your presence, remove our unbelief as we grow closer to You.   Help us see the possibilities for our lives as we spend time together.  You are my leader Lord, all I want to do is follow Your direction.  Thank You for this beautiful rain this morning.  I ask these things in Jesus name, Amen.  

Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.  

What does it mean to be a man and a father - a good listen.
