FAITH Factor

Living in our society today, many men and women have little faith. I'm speaking in regards of faith in GOD, in themselves, or just hope for a better tomorrow. It can be easy to feel discourage when adversity strikes or disappointment and heartache occur. Some men and women allow these factors to increase their determination and strengthen their faith, while others give up and throw in the towel.
One must understand this life is going to bring many trials and tribulations. The heart of a man or woman must encompass an unwavering belief in something greater than self. Faith in the creator of heaven and earth.

Faith has played a major part in my life. Many times when I experienced adversity, heartache, or frustration it was my faith that kept me resilient and hopeful for a brighter day.
Faith is being able to see yourself healed when you're sick, employed when you're unemployed, happy when you're sad,  being loved by someone honestly when you were deceived, and succeeding when others said you will fail.
The bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:7, "For we walk by faith, not by sight."

Poetic Thought:

Everyday going against the odds,
Pursuing something great is never easy, sometimes hard,
Write your own story with your heart's pen,
Victory is certain, but you win from within,
Everything has sequence, like the sixth, seventh, and eighth,
To fulfill your purpose and enjoy life, you must activate your faith! ~ JD

The movie "The Pursuit of Happyness" which starred Will Smith and his son Jaden Smith was a candid movie that speaks to faith and determination. It was about the life of Chris Gardner and his son who became homeless, but he eventually became a successful stock broker. No matter what life throws at you always remember to keep the faith! Until next time, class dismiss!!!
