Faith

“It started out as a feeling
which then grew into a hope.”
~Regina Spektor, The Call

I love how faith grows. It changes and deepens. It often begins as a feeling that seems just out of our reach. Yet, the more we open up our hearts, the more tangible it becomes.

I love that pivotal moment when a heart begins to believe, when light first starts to shine through the cracks and touches the darkness. The impossible sees the possible.

As faith springs to life, it opens our eyes to this ever growing hope.
It no longer stands at a distance waiting. It dwells in us and carries us forward.

Beautiful, Eileen. It's amazing that our God gives us the free will to choose to let Him in and how amazing it is when we do.

Hi Eileen,

Lovely post, absolutely beautiful. I love that moment when you see faith take hold in someones life, when you see the light shining in their darkness, when you see the light of God shine through in their face, it is those moments when you know God has grabbed hold of them and nothing is ever going to be the same again.
