Faith, what is it? Where does it come from, and who supplies it?
Every day without knowing it, people unwittingly practice the "art of faith" as a natural progression of humanity.
When you lay down at night to sleep, you trust a new day will follow. Sitting on your chair at the breakfast table ( no second thought given), believing it will hold you.
Transportation from 'A to B' is a given, as you position yourself to arrive at said destination.
Some folks believe faith is a practice reserved for religion. Yet, it is a gift bestowed upon each at birth, removed by willful denial, yet never completely gone.
From our earliest memories, we are surrendered to greater authority beyond birth parents, fully believing and entrusted to the power of the Universe, without doubting in great confidence and ease expressed in our being—fast forward to now - when all human reasoning is entangled. Yet, still, faith is subconsciously invested in each life.
Now, say you wanted to increase your awareness and enhance your mindfulness momentum. Would faith make a secured acknowledgement of hope and trust in your daily applications?
It is true; we can have faith in ourselves, in our abilities, regardless of limitations, and we can have confidence in people, things and places. However, all these are not lasting; they are all perishable, not infallible. There is only one assurance that has been from the beginning of time, and that is faith only in the Lord Jesus Christ - the same, yesterday, today and forever.
The great I AM, the creator of the Universe, the Almighty, everlasting, omnipotent, omnipresent. To surrender all and entrust in all who is and was and is to come - that is faith. As an adult, it becomes a conscious appreciation of the gift given from the overseer of your life, the life force in your breath, the silent listener to every conversation and the readily available for intimate interaction. Faith believes in the unseen and, without a doubt, follows the pursuit of happiness for outcomes adjusted for rightful intent.
Why would you deny yourself the ultimate protection - by investing in the acknowledgement of who you are and using your intellect to determine your positional truth, you are making faith alive in your daily life. Thus greatly enhancing your ability to endure the uncertainty that is living.
Faith is not woohoo; it is an unpretentious adjustment to the true essence of being. It is your path to purpose, your sure, confident, hopeful resting place from all that you do not know or yet to understand. It is your safe house of Wisdom, readily available for receiving when asking for help.
My tremendous comfort has been wrapped up in faith as His perfect will is the life poured into me for His purpose. That said, it instils a sense of destiny unmatched by worldly standards.
Ancient scrolls delivered the message as relevant today - your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
Do not underestimate the benefit of Godly principles for applications. They are worthwhile incorporated into your lifestyle.
Thank you.
