Faith
Faith isn't based on something you see
or receive.
Faith connects the Original Existence
of the individual
with the Original Existence
of the Whole.
So Faith always exists.
Faith is not belief or hope.
Seeds of desire and fear do not produce
a tree of Faith.
Faith springs from the Infinite, so
Faith is unconquerable.
Faith is that gem-like portion of the soul
which guarantees its return to Source.
Faith keeps you going,
whether you feel that you possess it
or not.
Faith is innate.
It needs no cultivation, but rather
Clarity of Mind and Fixity of Purpose
reveal it to be ever-existing.
Faith is the natural force which drives
the soul forward.
It's already there.
Faith is covered when the mind is embedded
in the fluctuations of the external,
which lead the soul away
from the stability
of her own unchanging Self.
Return, now Beloved.
Stop what you are doing and please...
return now.
When this world is destroyed,
it will rise again out of Faith,
and be born again.
But not because you desired it,
or tried to make it happen, but because
Rebirth out of Faith
is the Nature of Things.
The Source of Your Own Rebirth
is always Inside of You.
When we speak of Faith,
We never say “Have Faith in this or that”
But rather
that Faith is itself your own living energy,
a part of you.
The only thing that you should have Faith in
is your Self,
and in the Truth with directs you to the Self.
And the secret is that you already do have
this Faith.
You just need to let go
of what you are holding onto
in order to remember it.
Faith is the soul’s knowledge of its Self,
even when the mind and the personality
forget or are lost.
You need not,
and in most cases you should not,
put this part of your Self
into some external force or thing,
especially not into ideas
of some ephemeral “God,”
illusions and falsehoods
which lead you away from your Self.
But rather,
Tap into your own Faith yourself –
the will to be happy,
the will to move forward,
at the proper time,
in the proper way.
It's there!
Stay connected...Always.
Call it up!
Faith brings joy.
Joy brings energy.
And that joy which comes from within
brings clarity of mind and
confidence in the Self.
Thus you will conquer.
Through Faith in Truth,
Faith in yourSelf.
Faith reveals the Truth,
whereas belief, desire, hope, and fear
obscure It.
The Self cannot be known by the mind,
and Faith cannot be revealed by
wanting to believe.
Faith is spiritual.
And you...You are not a doubter.
If you feel you lack something,
let it go.
Keep letting go,
and one day
you will find all of your thirst
quenched by the Self,
all of your pain healed by Love.
You will realize your own Fullness,
and have no want,
only joy.
Faith will make you do this
one day anyway.
Why not now?
Fear nothing.
Just keep letting go of non-Self.
You, the Self, can never be lost.
Faith keeps pushing you towards Truth,
even as you attempt to
cling to your illusions,
even as you embrace untruth,
considering it to be shelter.
There is no such thing as "blind faith."
Faith sees all,
even when you cannot.
Faith is experienced
when belief and fear are destroyed
by the seeker seeking the Self.
Then one becomes secure,
even when under attack,
or in ignorance, doubt, or darkness.
You are the Self.
You cannot be harmed in any way.
When you unite with your own Faith,
and see that it is yours,
and not a gift received from another,
then you will be your own Rock.
You will fly…and expand everywhere.
Faith knows that the present moment is perfect,
and She wants to share this truth
with you now.
Faith is that power of the Soul
which allows you to let go and
enjoy the ride.
