Dad's Credit Card
When Jay Johnston heard Pastor Lee speak on how rich the father is, he was stunned at what the pastor said.
"You have a rich father", he said! It was strange to hear it put that way. But then the pastor followed up with, "if you have a rich father, do you take his credit card and buy things with it?". Sure, thinks Jay Johnston.
So why don't we live our life as if we know our father in Heaven is rich. We are his children. If we truly believed that we are children of God, by goodness, we could use that proverbial credit card and cash in!
With God's "charge card", we could heal our friends, family, and neighbors, we could bring food and shelter to those in need, and we could save the lost.
God is rich. We are his children. And we can believe.
He replied, "Because you have so little faith. 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
