Faith
My faith rests in God within.

Faith is not based on statistics or facts or what I perceive through my senses. Faith is “the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” It comes from confidence in the presence and power of God within.

If I have succumbed to fear or worry, I consider the teachings of Jesus: “Have faith in God.” As I align my thoughts in accordance with this simple yet powerful teaching, my attitude shifts. I am uplifted, confident, and assured.

I choose to place my trust in God—in Divine Love and Wisdom. In any situation, I focus on what I know to be true and unwavering—the presence of God—and I am assured that all is well.
Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God.”–Mark 11:22

Faith replaces fear, they don't walk hand in hand. There are healthy fears, and yet they are doable as long as you have faith that your God is with you.

How can you invite your Spiritual Guide within, if there is just darkness and you are not willing to let go of it to make room for the Light.

We need to work the Steps, clean house, and imagine what you would think, say, or do if Jesus knocked on your door and asked to come in. Would you close the door because your house is not clean?
