信心的支票簿 Faith's check book
在信的人凡事都能
經文: ��「耶穌對他說：你若能信，在信的人，凡事都能。」（馬可福音九︰23）�']
我們不信的惡習，是信仰之路的大障礙，事實上，只要讓靈性長大成熟，就沒有其他真正的困難，因為在上帝沒有難成的事，因此訂下一條屬靈的原則：就是一切按我們信心的大小成事，我們的小信會限制全能上帝的雙手。�
若我們能信，就能粉碎撒但的權勢；若能真正相信上帝的話，那被忽視的真理就會抬頭，而發揚光大。若我們能用真理束腰，且由賜平安的上帝親自為我們扣上
腰帶，我們就可處變不驚，莊敬自強，有驚無險地渡過人生的風浪。�
我們有什麼信不來的？難道只有「相信上帝」這件事做不到？上帝是永遠真實的，為何我們不能信靠祂？祂一向說話算話，為何我們不能信靠祂？若我們靈性光景正常，就無需努力苦求信心，因為信靠上帝，就像我們信賴父母，是一件極為自然的事。�
我們既相信上帝能為我們解決一切的困難，但最糟糕的，卻以為目前這件事是例外，這真是愚蠢！來吧，朋友，脫去一切不信的惡習（小信也是一個罪），把我們目前的重擔、愁煩卸在主的腳前，若能做到這一步，事情的困難就解決了一大半。�
The "All" of Belief
Scripture: "Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth" (Mark 9:23).
Our unbelief is the greatest hindrance in our way; in fact, there is no other real difficulty as to our spiritual progress and prosperity. The LORD can do everything; but when He makes a rule that according to our faith so shall it be unto us, our unbelief ties the hands of His omnipotence.
Yes, the confederacies of evil shall be scattered if we can but believe. Despised truth shall lift its head if we will but have confidence in the God of truth. We can bear our load of trouble or pass uninjured through the waves of distress if we can gird our loins with the girdle of peace, that girdle which is buckled on by the hands of trust.
What can we not believe? Is everything possible except believing in God? Yet He is always true; why do we not believe in Him? He is always faithful to His word; why can we not trust Him? When we are in a right state of heart, faith costs no effort: it is then as natural for us to rely upon God as for a child to trust his father.
The worst of it is that we can believe God about everything except the present pressing trial. This is folly. Come, my soul, shake off such sinfulness, and trust thy God with the load, the labor, the longing of this present. This done, all is done.
