Faith

Jealousy, envy, lies, back-stabbing, selfishness, greed, in-satiable truth of the times we live in. Our world is in a terrible state; but despite all that negativity – we must still have faith. Many of us don’t fully understand what this 5-letter word means; not grasping the significance and weight of which this word has appeared over and over again in the history of man.

Faith is the opposite of doubt, it is the firm belief without tangible proof, it is the strong conviction and deep trust that things will turn out for the best. It isn’t the easiest thing for us humans to wrap our minds or hearts around either – it is by spiritual grace that we are able to practice this gift; because a gift is really what faith is.

Because we can’t touch, taste, feel, see or hear something, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Faith is kind of like that; because we are un-certain of the future but have hope and faith that things will be delivered of substance. Do not worry darlings; the world and people are not in control of you or your destiny – your belief and your Universal love is what brings about the desires of your heart! TRUST – TRUST – TRUST! For this is only the beginning – a test, of sorts, to prepare you for what you were meant to become. Smile at adversity and think of them as opportunities to be patient and practice good faith. J

I’ll leave you with some wonderful quotes on the importance of staying on the path; despite the discouraging moments:

-          

• -          All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.
• -   A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.
• -   As your faith is strengthened you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit.
• -   Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
• -   Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.
• -   Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.
• -    Faith and prayer are the vitamins of the soul; man cannot live in health without them.

Remember my darlings; this is only the beginning – you are nowhere near the end of your glory. Trust and have faith because no-one knows how your story will end. Surrender and be glad! J

Bless-up!
