As I was doing a quiet time preparing for a time to speak, my daughter Jordan was hanging out with me…..

 

As I was praying and reading and writing down thoughts she went to the dry erase board and wrote:

 

Faith Can Move Mountains

Matthew 17:20

What a good word.

 

That word drew me to a song (Elevation Worship Do it again You move the Mountains) and I marveled in the goodness of God and the maturity of my 6th grade daughter.

 

If only we kept track of all the times that God moved a mountain for us……..

 

Einstein once said:

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

 

I am a member of the latter.  I believe EVERYTHING is a miracle.

 

Outside of a locker room in 1987 I met the Spirit of God…..and He put a hope on me that could not have come from anything else.  The verse “perfect love casts out all fear” came to life for me in one instant…..and I went from coward to child of God.

 

When Jordan and I listened to the song (Elevation Worship Do it again You move the Mountains) it brought me to a place of thanksgiving and worship that has defined my entire week.

 

We will face adversity–Jesus has guaranteed it.

We will face death–none of us will avoid it.

 

But we get to choose who we belong to.

 

And when we belong to Jesus….there is nothing He can’t do for us.

 

Enjoy this song as you cry out and thank God for all He has done for you.

 

You have never failed me yet.

 

I know the night won’t last….Your Word will come to pass

 

Jesus you’re still enough….keep me within your love

My heart will sing your praise again

 

Your promise still stands…..great is your faithfulness

 

I’ve seen You move, You move the mountains

and I believe–I’ll see you do it again

You made a Way, when there was no Way,

and I believe–I’ll see you do it again

 

In The Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
