PART6 / FAITH
market, the economy, and everyone else, owning absolutely no
responsibility.
I found this quite maddening. I wanted to shake them when
they refused to listen and would not accept any concept of faith.
When I realized that they were not at all open to my ministering
to them, I thought that if I held their faith for them it would help.
But it did not. I have realized that each of us must come
into our own understanding of faith. We must decide for our-
selves what it looks like, what it feels like, and what part it will
play in our lives.
We all have our own path.
For me, faith is ever present. I actively work to bring faith
into my life and I send thanks to the universe daily for the gifts
it brings to my door. The sense of gratitude that I carry is a con-
stant reminder to me that my faith is close by.
And you? What part does faith play in your life? Is it a brief
visitor or a constant companion? If your answer is not yet
known to you, begin now to explore the depths of your being.
My wish for you is that that you notice an unknown partner, one
that is waiting to be discovered in order to come alive and walk
beside you in grace.
