WHY DO IT IF YOU CAN'T HACK IT?

So here's the thing... A friend of mine got pregnant and she got to be left behind on her own by the guy when he found out about it.

Sad? Yes.

Tragic? Maybe.

Defeated? No!

I really feel for her and I wanted to console her one time. But, to my surprise, she said that she was already feeling better after she prayed. Whoa! That was fast.. To think that this sudden recuperation happened just a few days after the guy left her! But you know, that's what God is.

You see, God is always there whenever you need Him. He's omnipresent, remember? But the best position I believe that He occupies is at the end of our rope. There has been a lot of situations that some people have faced which may be considered as unrecoverable. But they always manage to bounce back. With a little faith, of course.

A little faith goes a long way as long as it's genuine. Faith as small as a grain of mustard could go a long way. Luke 17:6 says that if you do have faith as little as that, you can tell the mulberry tree to be planted in the sea and it may obey you. That's so cool!

Well, never mind the tree. Imagine a mountain. Matthew 17:20 says that having that much faith is enough to command a mountain to move from here to there and the result is that mountain moving at your will! Amazing! Mountains usually represent problems. This scripture really says it all. Having faith as small as a mustard seed can take away problems. That's a relief!

Do not forget though that it has to be genuine faith. If you go praying for rain, don't go out of your house without an umbrella. Otherwise, what's the prayer for in the first place?

When my friend told me that she felt a good sense of relief despite her ordeal when she prayed, it just meant one thing... The distance of a solution to any problem is equally proportional to the distance of your knees to the floor. Think about it!
