"When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him,
and he asked them,
'Do you believe that I am able to do this?'
'Yes, Lord,' they replied.
Then he touched their eyes and said,
'according to your faith let it be to you'
and their sight was restored".

i love this example of the blind men believing that Jesus is able to heal them. they had not seen any other miracles but chose to believe this man because of what they heard. it was simple for them to believe and trust. there was no hesitation but confidence in the one who was asking them. what a challenging statement..."do you believe that I am able?" i think we want to quickly say "yes, Lord". but do we really believe it can happen? do we really believe that God is able? the only obstacle in the way of us seeing God work miracles is our unbelief. we are hindering Him. He is able to do it. He just desires for His children to believe Him. may it be "according to our faith" when we see the hand of God working. knowing that by believing in what He is able to do will allow Him to prove Himself to us. He is yearing for us to believe Him. even when when we don't think it's possible.

I started reading your blog through a weird coincidence. I came across different alum blog pics Baylor had posted when it snowed in Texas this past winter. Your site was one of them. I looked at some of your other postings and was amazed by your powerful words in Him that touched my soul.
Also enjoy the great music on your site. What happened to "Always Forever" by Phil Wickham? It was one of my favs.
Noticed you've done a good amount of missionary work, and mention about going to Uganda soon. I am personally interested in learning more about how you do this and if you could email me for further info at kevin_krogulski@baylor.edu

Thanks for sharing your life, don't be discouraged, and don't stop blogging!
