You talk . . . 11/21 Monday meditation

You talk of your doubts and your fears, and you destroy your faith.




You talk of the ability of the Father that is yours, and fill your lips with praise for answers to prayers that you have asked. The reaction upon the heart is tremendous: Faith grows by leaps and bounds.



You talk about your trials and your difficulties, of your lack of faith, of your lack of money, and faith shrivels, loses its virility.

Your whole spirit life shrinks.



You study about what you are in Christ and then confess it boldly.



You dare to act on the Word in the face of sense knowledge opposition.



Regardless of appearance, you take your stand; make your confession and hold fast to it in the face of apparent impossibilities.



You see, faith doesn't ask for possible things. Faith is demanding the impossible.



Prayer is never for the possible, but always for the thing that is out of reason.



-- E. W. Kenyon
