"I tell you the truth,
if you have faith as small as a mustard seed,
you can say to this mountain, 
‘Move from here to there’ and it will move.
Nothing will be impossible for you."

Matthew 17:20

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen."

Hebrews 11:1



by Grandmother Beth


How wide is that circle
recognized and accepted
as part of your sphere?

Why does man choose small focus ...
compromising a flashing glimpse
of that which could be "His."
Influenced and shaped by preceding
generation's confining limits ..
relaxing into his comfortable furrow
known to stretch just "so far"
Haunted by ignored and discarded dreams ...
squelched by circumstances, or peer pressure,
questioning all that which is unknown,
avoiding that which "slices through"
Muffling his roar ... until his sound
blends in with the background;
content with just a change of melody,
framed by known boundaries of his time?

Could my voice in prayer
stop the sun?
part the sea?
crumble a wall?
Could my heart cry out with such a touch
to change the mind of God
that men would live, not die,
my prayer calling for mercy
appealing their cause?
Would I build the ark before the rain?
Would I stretch forth my rod before the Red Sea?
Man argues,
"What will be ... will be."
Not so!
Why then should man pray?
Why a God?
A God who bids us to come before His throne and offer up our
prayers with faith in His power
Even as I pen these words ...
I quake with the enormity of the responsibility -
even as it excites and challenges my mind and soul! 
The scripture states,  "We have not, because we ask not!"

Can I contented be
to shrug off and claim this concept, this wider sphere ...
as radical and far-fetched?

..."Be strong and courageous!
Do not tremble or be dismayed,
for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."

 "Jesus said to him, 'If you can believe,
all things are possible to him who believes.'" 

Mark 9:23



Sitting here at the end of the road
And I don't know what to do
Singing all alone a sad song
This is all do as a rule

But I know there is something that leads me through the dark
And I feel the hope is coming
Is coming back again coming back again
Yes it's coming and I live again

You are the sun in the night
You are my bright guiding light
And if it's raining again
You are by my side by my side, oh oh

And if a mountain's too high
And if a valley's too low
You're giving me power and strength
You are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything everything

Digging down too deep losing my ground
Feel a cold in my heart
Running down the street running all the way
Gotta make a new start

And I promise this time gonna be so true to myself
Then I feel the hope is coming
Is coming back again coming back again
Yes it's coming and I live again

You are the sun in the night
You are my bright guiding light
And if it's raining again
You are by my side by my side, oh oh

And if a mountain's too high
And if a valley's too low
You're giving me power and strength
You are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything everything

Oh oh, you are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything everything

Faith can move a mountain
Faith can move a mountain

And if it's raining again
You are by my side by my side, oh oh

And if a mountain's too high
And if a valley's too low
You're giving me power and strength
You are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything
Faith can move a mountain
Oh oh, you are everything everything

Faith can move a mountain
Digging down too deep losing my ground
Feel a cold in my heart
Faith can move a mountain
Running down the street running all the way
Gotta make a new start
Everything, everything, oh oh

Digging down too deep losing my ground
Feel a cold in my heart
Faith can move a mountain
Running down the street running all the way
Gotta make a new start

"And they were astonished beyond measure, saying among themselves, 'Who then can be saved?'  And Jesus looking at them said, 'With men it is impossible, but not with God, for with God all things are possible.'"
