Lent Week 5 -- the Concept of Faith

Mar 24, 2010 23:18

Faith is the belief that what is required is up to the task.  It's that age-old adage "God will never throw at you what you cannot handle."  What you have right now, your abilities and talents, your knowledge and wisdom, is exactly what you need to overcome any obstacles in your path.

Faith is also the ability to go on when facing adversity.  It is trust that the universe will turn out all right.  It embodies positive hope but also doesn't need it for it knows that the future will be okay.  There is nothing to fear if you live in faith.
