Weak Faith Clinging to a Mighty Object
Mark 9:24
And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help you my unbelief.


There was once a good woman who was well known among her circle for her simple faith, and her great calmness in the midst of many trials. Another woman, living at a distance, hearing of her, said, "I must go and see that woman, and learn the secret of her holy, happy life." She went; and accosting the woman, said, "Are you the woman with the great faith?" "No," replied she, "I am not the woman with the great faith; but I am the woman with a little faith in the great God."

(Milman.)
