Saint Clare

Matthew 17:14-20

Jesus often rebukes his disciples for having little faith. Their faith is fragile because it cowers before every obstacle and he warns them about the “faithless generation”. To Jesus, faith is the assurance that everything is possible for God. Faith is a power that can move mountains. There is no burden so heavy that God cannot help us carry it, no problem so insoluble that God cannot remove it. Faith is the remarkable force that empowers us to accomplish the ordinary or the seemingly impossible. Do not be afraid any longer but believe. Everything is possible to those who believe.
