I Have Not Seen Greater Faith

Matthew 8:10 When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!”

"People think we have such great faith going out and doing these things for God's kingdom and ministering to people, but really we can't do it with out their support. I think it's them who has the greater faith, because even though their not physically there, through every time they give their believing with us for what we're doing."

I just thought I'd post a little encouraging story about a little girl here in Mijas called Emma.
Emma and her family have dinner with us a lot, and Emma is a very cool girl.
Emma writes songs, very spiritual songs, Emma worships like an adult, if not more freely, Emma is also a giver, like no giver I've ever met.

The air port lost one of the girls in my house's bag a few weeks ago. She wears a size 3 or 4 in children's shoes. So you can imagine how hard it is for her to find shoes for herself in a foreign country.
I'm not sure if Emma bought the shoes or brought them but she gave the girl from my house a pair of shoes.
They didn't quite fit, but it's the thought that counts right?
I'm amazed at the faith Emma has to give things like this so freely.
I my self have always loved giving, but I want to be like Emma where I give out of an innocent heart always.

It's amazing what little things can do to bless some ones heart, and it's even more amazing how God can ues even a little girl like Emma.
My prayer is that the world can learn to give like Emma.
