We have all heard the statement, "Take a leap of faith." . But have we ever really thought about how much faith we have? Comedian Tim Hawkins jokes and says he worked at a Christian Amusement Park at the ride, "The Leap of Faith", a bungee jump with no bungees! Says they closed it down since it appeared some customers "didn't have the faith." It is funny, but think about faith. We say we have it, but just how much do we rely on it? How often is that next "leap" really dependent on faith?
Here is your stone!! ""Then he touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”;". (Matthew 9:29 NIV). Jesus healed the blind and mute, but His statement was not, "Be healed!" The healing was 100% driven by faith. So we don't know if their faith was so strong that their speech was clear and their sight was 20/20, but we know they were healed. I wonder if in that situation, would I gain 20/20 vision? Speak clearly? How about you? We say we have faith, but are we living and telling others the way these healed ones did? Are we drawing crowds to see our King? Live it out!!!!
