The Faith of the Cripple

The faith of the poor cripple is remarkable. He had never walked, nor even stood upon his feet, and he knew not how to use them; yet at the bidding of two strangers he instantly sprang to his feet and commenced to walk. There was no questioning, no statement of the impossibility of doing as he was commanded, no hesitation of any kind, but simple obedience. There are few men who would make an effort to rise. How does our faith compare with that of this poor beggar? Let us remember that the same power that performed that miracle exists to-day.
