FAITHLESS?

I was in the kitchen today about midday trying to prepare what to eat and my mind was suddenly engaged in a discussion about Faith, about hope, trust; about marriage. The dynamics that exist amongst some words are just mind blowing, it just further proves that the best of man's wisdom is foolishness when compared with God's. I actually did write something that I thought best captured the summary of my midday rumblings and put it on facebook. I hope it helps someone with pressing questions find answers from the ultimate source.

A faithless man is one devoid of hope.

To anticipate, to expect, to wait for anything, for anyone
Signs of a man with only a residual hope at least
A hopeless man is one who lives to end it now

Many fight the source of their hope
Many think it is unlinked to faith
They keep hope but think they have murdered faith

Faith is not vapor
It's reaching for reality
Hopeful for a good spouse
Hopeful for a better Nation
Hopeful for the best life has to offer

Faith is not to be despised
It is not out to sever reason from divinity
It is what keeps life going

As long as the noose is not at your neck, as long as that blade is not primed to slash, as long as that frame is not over the bridge... you have hope, you may deny it but there is faith inherent. At the end of that faith is life eternal, He beckons on us to take the first step and press on.
