“We Can See!”

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.

Matthew 9:31

Reading:

Matthew 9:27-34; 11:2-6

“According to your faith be it unto you” — What results would I get?

Why am I so reserved about spreading Jesus’ fame abroad?

When my status and station are threatened, do I unjustly become a naysayer?

When my faith weakens, what do I do?

[The Scriptures say in Matthew 9:28 -- Believe ye that I am able to do this?]
from Matthew 9:28

Would God be overjoyed to let it be as I will?

When Crumbs Will Do

Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as though wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Matthew 15:28

Reading:

Matthew 15:21-31

“Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me” (Matthew 15:25).

How faithful and watchful am I as a parent? (Or as a child, for that matter!)

Do the cries of others push me across the wrong threshold?

Will I give up in the face of divine silence?

Is my faith (or hope) driven by a sense of entitlement (“God owes me….”)?

Would God be overjoyed to let it be as I will?

What do I do with my issues, challenges, problems, woes, and troubles?

Does God get enough glory from me?
