From Father Pat Umberger .=: S C R I P T U R E F O R T H E D A Y :=. "If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you." ~Luke 17:6 .=: M E D I T A T I O N F O R T H E D A Y :=. To see God with eyes of faith is to see God's power manifesting itself in the material world. When we don't believe, it's hard for us to see God's work. In response to our belief, God can work miracles in our personalities. Miracles can happen in the realm of personality and are accomplished by God's never-failing power. But God's power manifests itself best in us when we accept God's power through faith. We can only see God with the eyes of faith, but this kind of seeing can produce a great change in our way of living. .=: P R A Y E R F O R T H E D A Y :=. I pray that I may see God with the eyes of faith. I pray that this seeing will produce a change in my personality. .=: S C R I P T U R E S A N D S A I N T O F T H E D A Y := Scriptures: http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/ Saint of the Day: http://www.americancatholic.org/Features/SaintofDay/ .=: W E P R A Y :=.
