WHEN IS IT FAITH AND WHEN IS IT MERELY TALK?

Religious talk wants.  Faith expects.

Religious prattle speaks of prayer.  Faith prays.

Christians want many things.  Yet, a believer anticipates God's supply and provision.

I have walked both paths.  Oh how I have wanted God to do this and show me that.  Yet, believing God is the provider, my role is to plant and water.

Wanters don't plant.  Neither do they water.  They just live in desire with no trust.

Believers express by planting and watering while convinced God will give increase.

Faith is the assurance of things hoped for; the conviction of things not seen.  Want merely resides within  talkers who major in wish rather than believe.

Believers are constantly moving with great expectation of God showing up.

Each of us either talks the empty lingo or keenly anticipates another great God-move.
