Faith Blooms Within

Faith is something born within us 
We struggle to consummate it with reason
No real action in the world begins without faith
It blooms across the length breadth and depth of our heart.
In the journey along the high way of life
There lurks somewhere in front or behind
A faint ray of hope projecting a light 
That helps us to see, that guides.  
Faith is the quintessential discrete breath of life    
Which blooms at some juncture of it
It’s not the result that matters
Not in the least, however colorful it is.   
Look deeper within your heart
View the glowing light yet unseen 
See what your entire being is crying for
That you must attain with rigor. 
A spiritual Guru desires that all his disciples 
Should have the ultimate faith in their success 
In spite of all strain and stress;
Maybe that it is the way to test his faith.
