With God, All Things are Possible

He answered him and said, “O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me.” Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth. So He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. And often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” Mark 9:19‭-‬24 NKJV

*What I love about this story is how God illustrates faith, and how calm you are suppose to be when you have faith. Can you imagine a demon convulsing in a person, and Jesus just stands there cool, calm, and collect while being unbothered and asking a question? He isn't moved by chaos. I also LOVE the vulnerability of the dad who is asking for help in believing, and Jesus helps his unbelief..The dad seemed drained, but still knew to cry out with what little faith he had to ask for help. We all can cry out to God that way. I know I have..Most importantly, we need to prepare for change. The disciples desired to help, but were unprepared. Are you prepping yourself in God to make a difference in your life, and the lives of others?
