• Nothing to Give?

  
  
  Peter said, "I don't have a nickel to my name, but what I do have, I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!"  Acts 3:6
  
  The Lord says:
  
  What do you suppose blesses Me the most?
  
  Do you know that without faith it is impossible to please Me?
  
  Even more than your money, nice conversations with the needy, kindness to the downtrodden and wounded; more than your good deeds and tithes, I treasure your faith.
  
  

  A dollar bill won't buy deliverance from evil spirits;
  a smile and a bowl of soup won't make the lame to walk and the blind to see.
  But, My dear one, your faith will move mountains. 
  It will heal the sick, give hope to the hopeless and courage to the feeble.
  Your faith is your greatest gift and your most valuable asset.
  From faith springs every good thing,
  giving you power to overcome evil.
  
  When your energy fails and your inspiration lags, remember that to do the work of God,
  your greatest task is to believe.
  
  
  

  
  Gal 6:9

  So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit.

  
  Heb 11:6 

  It's impossible to please God apart from faith. And why? Because anyone who wants to approach God must believe both that he exists [and] that he cares enough to respond to those who seek him.

  
  1 John 5:4 
    Every child of God conquers the world's ways. The conquering power that brings the world to its knees is our faith.
  
  John 6:28-29
    They replied, "What does God want us to do?"  Jesus told them, "This is what God wants you to do: Believe in the one he has sent."
