Vernonia Senior Center Things To Ponder 15:17-20)? Does this kind of twisting and convoluting of words remind you of what happened in the Garden of Eden? It is God’s Word that carries the weight not our words or the Devil’s. We will be held accountable for every word we speak, every thought we think, and every action we take. The measure of our faith is the strength or weakness of our relationship with God (Hebrews 11:1-3). Spiritual blindness becomes immobilizing and renders us powerless when our faith is small. When Peter trusted Jesus he walked on water. 446 Bridge Street continued from page 16 When the disciples were unable to cast out demons it was due to a lack of faith. Jesus said, “…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).” Spiritual blindness can be conquered by knowing the Word of God, saying no to the Devils schemes, and believing He will fulfill His promises. Trust in God, not yourself, and your vision will begin to clear and things will come into focus.
