****Faith = Power****

        In today's Gospel reading from Mark 7, a Greek woman whose daughter had an unclean spirit came and fell at Jesus' feet to beg him to drive the demon out of her. He said to her, "Let the children be fed first. For it is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs." She replied, "Lord, even the dogs under the table eat the children's scraps." Then he said to her, "For saying this, you may go. The demon has gone out of your daughter."
        We see that the Lord can drive a demon out of anyone unseen, as long as we have faith in him. Now, our world has been pretty much taken over by the ever spirits. If enough of us would persist in praying for the deliverance of the entire world from them, it will surely happen. Never, never underestimate the power of the Lord and our own faith! Hope in him always and we are indestructible!
