I was recently reading a book to an elderly lady who is from Europe and has a hard time understanding English at times. The man in the book was talking about his Faith. She said "What is Faith?". First of all, I had never met an adult who didn't understand the word faith. I had no idea how to translate Faith in her native language. I told her that Faith is believing in something or someone without actually seeing it or having proof that it exists. She didn't understand. Faith is trusting that something that you are looking forward to will happen without knowing for sure. She still didn't understand. Faith is knowing in your heart that there is a higher power than us even though we have no logical proof. I just didn't seem to get through to her. I continued to give her examples to try to help her understand. Still nothing.
Could it be possible that this woman had gone through her entire life without having faith in anyone or anything, without ever trusting. It is almost sad to think about. She is someone who lets fear rule her life, so maybe she has no faith, in anything, therefore she wouldn't know what it is.
Where would I be today if I had no Faith that there was a God, Spirit, a Higher Power. It was impossible for me to even fathom. I have complete faith that Spirit guides me in my life. I rely on this guidance. I may not always think about it, but Faith it is. My heart feels it and my mind knows it. It is the most important thing in my life.
This is my absolute favorite saying:
When you have come to the edge of all the Light you have known
and are ready to jump into the Darkness,
FAITH
is knowing one of two things will happen.
You will either have something to stand on
or you will be taught how to fly.
Maybe this will help you to think about what you have faith in. I hope so.
Thanks for letting me share.
