MARK 11:22-25
And Jesus...saith unto them, Have faith in God.
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall
say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and
be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in
his heart, but shall believe that those things
which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have
whatsoever he saith.
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye
desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive
them, and ye shall have them. And when ye
stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against
any: that your Father also which is in heaven
may forgive you your trespasses.
FAILS
Love
NEVER
I DECLARE BY FAITH THAT:
Even if I dole out all that I have [to the
poor in providing] food, and if I
surrender my body to be burned or in
order that I may glory, but have not Love
(God's Love in me), I gain nothing.
I endure long, and I am patient and
kind; I am never envious, nor do I boil over
with jealousy. I am not boastful or
vainglorious, and I do not display myself
haughtily.
I am not conceited (arrogant and
inflated with pride); I am not rude
(unmannerly), and I do not act
unbecomingly. I (God's Love in me) do not
insist on my own rights or my own way, for I
am not self-seeking; I am not touchy or
fretful or resentful; I take no account of the
evil done to me [I pay no attention to a
suffered wrong]
I do not rejoice at injustice and
unrighteousness, but I rejoice when right
and truth prevail.
I bear up under anything and
everything that comes, I am ever ready
to believe the best of every person, my
hopes are fadeless under all
circumstances, and I endure everything
[without weakening].
I never fail because God's Love in me
never fades out or becomes obsolete or
comes to an end.
