--FAITH TO BELIEVE~~~
--Faith is a force that is greater
than knowledge or power of skill,
And the darkest defeat turns to triumph
if you trust in God's wisdom and will.For faith is a mover of mountains-- There's nothing man cannot achieve If he has the courage to try it and then has the faith to believe. ~~  ~~~~~~~~~ "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.'
--(Hebrews 11:1)~
"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by
the Word of God." --(Romans 10:17) ~~ ~~~~~~ --"For we walk by faith, not by sight. (2 Corinthians 5:7)

--Each Small Sincere Prayer ~~
--'They tell me that prayer
helps to quiet the mind--
And to unburden the heart,
for in stillness we find--
A newborn assurance that
Someone does care.
And Someone does answer
each small, sincere prayer.~~
--Helen Steiner Rice~~
[Acronym / FAITH = Forsaking All I Trust Him~ ][JESUS IS AS CLOSE AS THE MENTION OF HIS  NAME~]

--OUR FATHER ABOVE ~~~
~~ APPLE BLOSSOMS bursting wide
now beautify a tree
And make a Springtime picture
that is beautiful to see.----
Oh fragrant, lovely blossoms,
You'll make a bright bouquet..
If I but break your branches
from the apple tree today.
But if I but break your branches
and make your beauty mine,
You'll bear no fruit in season
when severed from the vine.
And when we cut ourselves away
from guidance that's divine,
Our lives will be as fruitless
as the branch without the vine.
For as the flowering branches
depend upon the tree
To nourish and fulfill them
till they reach futurity,
We, too, must be dependent
on our Father up above,
For we are but the branches,
And He is the tree of LOVE."

--Thank You, Lord For Our Daily Graces ~~
-Make us more aware, dear God,
of little daily graces
That come to us with sweet surprise
From never-dreamed-of places.
Then thank You for the miracles
We are much too blind to see,
And give us new awareness of our many gifts from Thee.
And help us to remember that the key to life and living
Is to make each prayer a prayer of thanks
And each day a day of Thanksgiving. ~~ --

~~FAITH TO BELIEVE ~~
--WHETHER God answers promptly
--or delays in answering your prayer,
You must have faith to believe Him
and to know in your heart He'll be there.
So be not impatient or hasty,
--just trust in the Lord and believe,
For whatever you ask in faith and love,
in abundance you are sure to receive. ~~
~~~Helen Steiner Rice ~~"Trust in the LORD with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight." -- [Proverbs 3:5-6] -- 
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]

The great Giver of life is holding our hands,
And safe in His care there is no need for seeing,
"For in Him we live and move and have our being.~~
