A friend of mine gave this to me when I told her about my weight loss/health goals and that I sometimes get frustrated. It has helped me to read it recently, so I thought I would share it. For myself - I put it on my health journal and highlighted the next to last one.
What is Faith?
Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Faith refuses to surrender control to negative doubts of yesterday.
Faith is belief in the future.
Faith is dreaming God's dreams.
Faith is rejecting negative forces that would replace it with unbelief.
Faith is a choice, not an argument; a decision, not a debate, a commitment, not a controversy.
Faith increases our moral strength and our days of joy.
Faith reduces our days of despair.
Faith enables us to face our fears and turn the negative into a positive.
Faith is the only positive option open to us; all other alternatives are negative.
Faith is daring to face an embarrassing failure.
Faith is not a contradiction of reality, but rather it is the courage to face reality with hope.
Faith fills the gap between "I have" and "I want".
Faith is opening your mind for God's thoughts to flow in.
Faith is impossible without risk.
Faith is having the courage and strength to get out of a rut.
Faith without passion is a soft drink without the fizz.
