Faith...

As each minute, hour, day, week passes we learn something new. Things which come together and form skills we need in this game we call life. The more we learn the more we are exposed to God's greatness. That which surpasses all understanding. Confusing? Yes! How can we learn more about God but have no understanding? Well, I guess that's the whole point of life, its all one big lesson that takes us to a greater place where all unanswered questions are finally answered. 

The main catch here is that big word, that word that scares everyone, faith. Such a complicated term yet so simple. 

Faith = Belief in something we cannot physically see. 

As Christians we hear all sorts of things in relation to faith, some say faith can move mountains, while others say that faith is something that requires too much from mankind. Interestingly, you can understand why some may say the latter. As humans of today, in the society that we live in evidence is paramount, without it your claim is useless. So living in today's age how can we build our faith? Typical answers are read your Bible, pray more, be nice to others and so forth. Easier said than done, but can be done. What else can we do? Another idea is to take charge of your friends. Gather them up together and start a Bible study group and then you’d feel obliged to read the Bible and grow in faith. Easier done than said! I guess I’ve just written up my checklist….
