Moving Mountains

Marianne’s Miracle Thought spoke of the powers we have because we are the embodiments of God’s spirit. Jesus said that if we had faith the size of a mustard seed, we could move mountains. He also said that we would do things even greater than what he had done.

When I think about this, I am half in disbelief and half in awe. What if I could really dispel the mountains that are in my life blocking my movement forward? What if I could heal my partner of fibromyalgia so that she could spend the rest of her days in freedom doing the things she longs to do? What if, not by searching the web or helping her with her resume or LinkedIn profile, I could find my sister the perfect job? Jesus says I can do these things, and more.

The mountain in my believing of this is that I can’t do things for others they do not want done or are not ready for. I think my sister isn’t ready for her dream job, so first I would need to pray that she become ready. And my partner, I don’t know if she’s ready for healing. I don’t know if she believes it can happen. The one thing Jesus always asked people before he healled them was something along the lines of “Do you have faith?” The person had to believe he could heal them and be ready to be healed before he could do anything.

I know how miserable my partner is with the way her life is right now. She feels limited. There’s so much she wants to do and she gets frustrated with how little she can do. If I focus my attention, love, and prayers on her, maybe I could move that mountain of frustration so that she’s ready to be healed. I have felt powerless in my ability to help her. Maybe this is the way I can help.

Yah, help me hold on to the believe, the faith, that with Your spirit, I can move mountains. May I hold strong to that so that I can help Morgan. I want to say — so I can heal Morgan, but I’m having trouble believing that. Strengthen my faith in Your spirit so that I CAN heal Morgan.
