If you have faith...

as small as a mustard seed, you can say to the mountain "move from here to there" and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. Matt 17:20

This verse came into my mind last night at about 12:20 am. Mind you I RARELY wake up in the middle of the night. I am blessed that once I am asleep, I am asleep. However last night Reese woke up with a leg cramp (oh no growing pains!). I got up and gave her some Motrin and laid in her bed to rub her legs. She was miserable and crying and moving and just in pain. I was rubbing her calves and praying it would ease. Suddenly she leans over, gives me a big hug and says "Thank you God." I didn't say anything back and she said, "The cramp is gone, goodnight." She rolled over and went back to sleep. I on the other hand laid in her bed hearing those words "Thank you God" over and over. And I kept hearing Matthew 17:20 (mind you I had to look up the scripture reference but knew the verse).

So today I ask, why IF we claim to have faith (even faith only as small as  mustard seed) do we still fight God so hard? Why don't we let Him change our lives? From the lyrics of Rich Mullins why would "I rather fight You for something I don't really want, then take what You give and I need?"

Really just a rhetorical question I guess. Just on my mind this AM and felt the need to blog about it.

What if IT changed your life? What are we so afraid of?
