If I really believed...

If I really believed… could I move a mountain? But I don’t really want to move any mountains. I just want to believe so I could remove the thoughts that are painted across my canvas each day. I just want to believe enough to remember that God’s eyes see everything that I do. I just want to believe enough so that I can live out the promises God has already given me. Nothing great, nothing spectacular, nothing miraculous, nothing earth shaking… I just want to believe enough to be pleasing to God. Is that so hard? For heaven’s sake it appears so. So, how can I ask God to move mountains, out there, when I have small ridges in my own life that seem impossible? So, God, here I am, small, sinful yet my inner desire is to be at peace with you. That’s my large mountain. Increase my faith. (Reflections from Matthew 17:20.)
