The Discipline of Faith

Its too easy nowadays to lose focus on whats inherently necessary to survive in this world. It has become easy to deceive ourselves from whats important; from the instruments of lifes gifts that can lead us and heal us to a more peaceful existence. I dont need to remind you of the distractions the world places before us every day. Our busy lives and self centeredness have stalled our faith. Our intellect tries to rationalize through the teachings of man that faith and God is not necessary. This my friends is dangerous and a false premise that many now believe in. There was a time when I fit right into that category, taken in by wealth, greed and materialism. Even the birth of my children did not reconnect my relationship with God. This is why I speak of our faith and how significant it is to help lead and direct your life. So how do we get there? How do we begin and instill the heavenly powers of faith? It starts by you stopping your search somewhere else other than your own heart. God is within us all but He lies dormant in the mind and hearts of men and women everywhere. You need alone time with God. Do not search out His presence by asking the world. Search inside yourself and connect with your soul, not your mind or the voices of fear and negativity. Allow the presence of God to envelop your heart and fill the breath of life that transcends all mankind.
