Matthew 17:20. 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."
Movie Summary: A nerdy accountant encounters a thief while he is shopping at a costume store. He takes matters into his own hands and saves the owner. After this incident he trains himself to be fitter and better. He is approached by one of the witnesses with the costume as a gift. Pretty soon he finds himself labeled a hero and a symbol of hope for the citizens of America. News headlines are constantly reporting about him and everyday people are standing up for themselves.
But things don't last and he is betrayed by the very person who gave him the costume. He is accused of trying to romance a single mother out of her money and put to public shame.
Despite all of this, he is still somebody's hero.
Surrender. Surrender. Surrender. I think this is something I have always been struggling with. I have recently been reading the account of Rebecca and Isaac in Genesis 24:1-67. This young lady was approached one day by the servant of Abraham (whom she has never met) and was asked to return with him and be married with the master's son. It's not as common these days to agree to blind marriages, but if I was her, would I be as willing to hand over my future to an unknown "master"?
But God doesn't want to be our part-time master, he wants to be our ONLY master. So in 2013, can I focus more on Him and less on me?
