KNOWLEDGE IS THE KEY TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF FAITH

"Mum, how are we certain that the flood is not going to reach the house?" The little boy asked her young mother. The rains had come in full force this year. The six-year old had no clue about the warning system and the alerts that was announced on TV earlier that night. When his mother refused to reply the boy got himself busy. He went to the basement ans turned off all the water main pipes. His dad had thought him how in case of an emergency and this was one. He went to the room of old clothes and packed old towels. Carefully he lined up each window and door openings until he was satisfied. He rolled up the rug with all his strength and smiled when he was done. On his way up he took the first aid kid with the flash light and other supplies. The father came home soaked and called out to his son. "Welcome home dad," he said with a smile. "We are ready for the flood. We can go through anything now."

The little boy developed a strong faith because of the knowledge he had as well as what he accomplished.Do you have the faith that the flood of life will not take over? What knowledge do you have in place for this faith to be real?
