Faith in the Faithful One

Comment from Ric Myworld
I understand that it's difficult for many to believe in what they cannot see, what they can't touch, or promises without written guarantees. But I've found, trusting and having faith opens up senses we never knew we had. And we don't even have to have the "Faith of a mustard seed." :-) Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed your in-depth explanation of your faith, starting with having trust in the things around you and the people who support us, to having faith in the unseen and your belief in God, I enjoyed your sentiment here and I wish you luck with the contest, love Dolly x

Thank you very much.
Comment from Michele Harber
This is absolutely beautiful, for so many reasons! First is that you have a very strong faith, that shines through brightly in every line.
Second is that you regularly specify that this is what YOU believe, i.e., you're not trying to impose your beliefs on anyone but, rather, share them, and the others can decide for themselves.
Next is the idea you bring up that humans do decide for themselves. God presents our options, but it's up to us to choose by which ones we'll abide.
Finally, I love the idea of having faith in inanimate objects, the safety of travel, etc. I know many atheists, and I've always tried to get them to recognize that they do have faith. While it may not be in a divine entity, it's faith that everything we think will happen when we perform a certain action will happen. Faith, of any positive kind, helps get you through the day.
For me personally, I consider myself a total coward, yet I've zip-lined through the tree-tops, gone over the roof of a one-story building and rappelled down, and climbed a tall rock-climbing wall, because I had faith the harness would hold. Without faith, I'd have missed out on these and other exciting experiences. Thank you for reminding all of us, in excellent prose, of the importance of faith, in any form.

You're very welcome, and those six stars are well deserved. Too many people try to push their faith on you. You, instead, described yours beautifully as it applies to you, while letting others decide for themselves.
Comment from Lea Tonin1
Wow! This is sooo good.
What a wonderful way to explain and talk about Faith. Face has many facets like a diamond under the sun. Flashes and glimpses at every turn.
I see, no issues with grammar, esthetics, sentence structure spelling. It all looks very well to me. And with a lovely picture, you've made a fine entry.
I wish you best of luck and hope you have a great day!

Comment from JPGeo
This is a clear and well written piece on faith. I like that is in the Christian tradition, based on biblical teaching and that you tell us your own beliefs in what the final judgement will be like. I drew inspiration from your words. Thank you for posting and best wishes.
