mountains moved ...

* Bob Pearson was at the crossroads of his life trying to determine what to do next in ministry. He tells of a dream where he is in water waist high. No real panic but when he views the horizon there is nothing but water. That is when his gut began to twist. Then behind him he heard water moving. He turned to look to see and behold it was Jesus walking in the water. Yes, in the water because Jesus always is in the midst of things even in our storms. Jesus said like He always had said, ''I know you want to see what is on your horizon, but you need to see Me on your horizon.'' Bob Pearson woke at 3:31AM with this verse "Walk by Faith not by sight.''

* Balanced Faith
Yes, faith too must function best with our intellect, our emotions, our physical being, and our will, or there will be engine failure. A total crash and burn ...

* Mountains Moved
Q: If faith of the mustard seed moves mountains, is Jesus talking about the smallness of faith or is He talking about the potency of faith!!!!???

In Matthew 17:14-23 tells of Jesus healing a boy with seizures. The disciples asked Jesus why they couldn't heal the boy. Jesus said, ''Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move ...' Nothing will be impossible for you.'' If you go back a few pages to the parable of the mustard seed (matt 13:32) you see how potent this small seed is: 'Thought it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches.' One mustard seed favors the whole pot of rice!

Dear Mountain Mover,
You quicken my heart as the children in Africa said in my own language how alone they were. Aids have taken away their parents and have infected them. You have been teaching me as a single girl about the mother instincts you gave every female creation.

I just viewed and picked up a girl. I just spiritually adopted a girl to love and pray for. Thank you for bringing her to my life. You Moved a Mountain before I even could think about it ... my own heart. Now to Mountains Moved in this young girl's life... "... to hear the barbarian call, to form a barbarian tribe, and to unleash the barbarian revolt. Let the invasion begin ... '' (tBW).
~always your little girl
