Faith

FAITH

To believe is to not focus on what you can see, but to focus on what can’t be 
seen.
To do this one must have some sort of foundation in a higher power. We as 
humans tend to believe what we see as truth instead of what we feel and know in 
our hearts. For example, I f you closed your eyes and stretched out your hands 
and felt a wall in front of you, and then I told you I moved the wall would you 
believe me without reaching again.

If not then you need to develop faith.

Having faith in something or someone is a great experience. It is the source of 
the very thing that you don’t understand that drives you to do. Do what ever it is 
that you do. If its sing do it in faith, that your voice will shine through like the rays 
of sun do.

Having faith in something or someone is a liberating thing. It means letting the 
weight of the world fall off your shoulders, knowing that everything will be alright if 
you just keep keeping on and looking to the light.

Having faith in something or someone is a teaching tool. To show you how 
patient you must be with life and its surprises. Not letting the downs keep you, or 
the ups distract you. Always knowing that there is always someone to answer to 
and accountability to be held.

If you can’t you need to develop faith

Having faith means that no matter what the trial or how long the test, you will 
stand out above the rest. It means against all odds you will, no matter the 
weather you will, no matter the outcome you will, and most of all now that you can 
you always will.
