A Powerful Force

Faith is a powerful force requiring absolute trust. It allows one to believe they are loved and not alone. Suffering persecution, some have little more than faith. And yet, it's unshakable in times of adversity. Praying perpetuates hope, opening one's heart to God. And when one first feels His love, everything quickly changes. One's beliefs can imbue life with a strong sense of purpose. Existence should never feel empty or unfulfilling. The love that one has for God is oft rooted in blind faith. And yet, that faith sustains one, nourishing both heart and soul.

I admire those who, like yourself it seems, have an innate sense of God--for myself, well, He had to whack me as a young man pretty hard to get my attention, but he's had my attention--and love -for 50 years. I used to think life had no meaning--now I know it has much we only grasp a bit of it.
