Today marks the begining of the end

Well, as many of you know today is officially the begining of the end. It has been said therefore it is. . . O.k. Now that THAT is out of the way . . .
Faith. A powerful word. But just what does it mean?? What IS faith?? Is it those moments when you tell God what you want and expect Him to give it to you??
The Israelites had no Faith in God. Repeatedly Jesus was saying "Oh yea of LITTLE FAITH" so the logical conclusion is that they just didn't what?? . . Were they missing some magical formula?? They cetainly had the law down enough! But they WERE missing something. . . So what was it??
Biblically speaking "Faith is the evidence of things hoped for but not seen as yet." Well what in the world does THAT mean?? There is still something missing for us to fully grasp this concept.
"If you abide in me (if we abide in God), and my words abide in you (Scripture is in our hearts) than you may ask what you will of the Father and it will be granted to you . ."
Thus we come to the conclusion of everything. If we know God's word than we know God. We spend time with Him and know Him like we would know anyone else. Therefore we can ask Him for something and He will grant it to us because we will ask for it according to HIS WILL!! Faith is merely believing that God is who He said He is and that He will do what He said He would.
I apologize for not remembering where I got those verses!! I am pretty good at memorizing Scriptures . . . . Just not where they come from . . I.e. which book and what chapter and what verse . . . Etc. . . Anywho!! Enjoy!!
