We see in chapter 11 of “Intensive Faith Therapy” that Jesus is very impressed by faith. During His earthly ministry, He often commented on the faith of the people he encountered. There were several times that He marveled at the “great faith” that some of those people had that came to Him. Other times, He was equally astonished at the lack of faith, or “little faith” that some of those that were the closest to Him had.
It is clear from scripture that Jesus expects us, those that are the closest to Him, to operate in “great faith”. Sure, it was wonderful that the Gentile woman and the Centurion soldier had faith that Jesus could solve their problems. However, it looks like He expected even more from his disciples. He expected His disciples to have enough faith to do something about the raging storm and the lack of food. He really expected Peter to walk on that water.
How would Jesus rate your faith today?
