Is Your Faith Helping You Through Your Journey Through Life?

I can never be sure of what faith lies for me, since I'm still thinking that life is just starting for me. But of all the things I've been through, I believe that God is so great for me. I experienced some up's and down's, "been there done that" situations and yet I feel I am still blessed that I managed to survive all of it.. I owe it all to Him, who never turns His back on me whenever I need His strength.

Ohhh my Deeeky, you are an idealist! lol. To my mind the path of live never runs smoothly... it's as smooth as you make it. You will always encounter obstacles, rough patches, bumps and turns along the way... it's how you deal with those obstacles that matters. You know my beliefs, but I'll elaborate... in the time you've known me, I haven't done this, but there have been times in the past few years, when things have not turned out to be what they seem, and I have just up and gone off on walkabouts, or trips. I go alone, and I find quiet spots, such as atop Exmoor, Tarr Steps or Stone Henge, and I contemplate my life path... kind of meditate. I search inside myself to find the answers to the lessons, and then apply them. You'd be surprised how many times that works, and I can certainly vouch for the peace of solitude, being at one with nature, and the great powers which surround us at times like those. I harness those powers in spells, or within my sacred space mostly... sacred space can be cleared of negativity in any place I feel comfortable, or feel I belong. Imagination doesn't work too well with me, but belief does. If I work a spell, I know whether it's going to work when I cast it, because I can feel the energy being drawn into and released from me. A difficult situation to explain but it's sure as heck much stronger than imagination alone. I certainly agree with the "Believe in yourself" bit, but you know sometimes you believe in yourself, and things don't quite turn out as you seem to think they might. I believe that these instances are the lessons of life that we were put here to learn. That's when you need to find your inner self and cast aside your negativity because somehow that old demon has gotten in there, and you have to kick it out! Find yourself, understand what went wrong, cast aside the negativity and put on your PMA suit of armour, and things will turn out ok. We shouldn't dwell on our "failures" too long... there's a reason for everything, and obviously when you fail, your objective was not to be. Brightest Blessings my dearest friend. A great discussion again! :)

Certainly. Without faith, how could I live? God is all to me and I read the Holy Bible to know what He wants me to do and I pray to tell Him all that I have to tell Him.

I'm pretty much clear on what I want to do with my life. And yes, my faith has a lot to do with it. I want to go through life following the greatest commandment of all: LOVE. Love for family, for self, and for others. I think that's what life is all about.

Faith ...whether in God or Destiny ...it just goes on . I'm in a dilemma .. I am unable to speak out whther my my faith keeps me in good stead or not. However I'm quite sure that some unseen force protects me and keeps me not to become endangered . Still I am skeptical about my faith(leave religious belief apart) . Thanks LOL. Be my friend .
