Faith to Share

"This and this only has been my appointed work:  getting this news to those who have never heard of God, and explaining how it works by simple faith and plain truth"
-- 1 Timothy 2:7 / MSG

Genuine faith never meant to be locked up in the heart of a believer; to the contrary, it is meant to be shared with the world.  But, if you sincerely seek to share your faith, you must first find it.

When a suffering woman sought healing by merely touching the hem of His cloak, Jesus replied, "Daughter, be of good comfort; your faith has healed you" (Matthew 9:22).  The message to believers of every generation is clear:  live by faith every day.

How can you strengthen your faith? Through praise, through worship, through Bible study, and through prayer.  And , as your faith becomes stronger, you will find ways to share it with your friends, your family and with the world.

"Our faith grows by expression.  If we want to keep our faith, we must share it.  We must act" -- Billy Graham

Lord, help us to be people whose faith is evident to our family and friends.  Help us to remember that You are always near and that You can overcome any challenge.  With Your love and Your power, Lord, we will live courageously and share our faith with others, today and every day.
