Inspiring Thoughts - 25

[Guest guest]

Faith is complete concentration on the Self.

The one that likes to hop from one distracting gain to another often finds it difficult to follow “faith”.The weak minded often find faith “too far” and desire “nearer and dearer” to reach.We often ask God for what we want and then we place our faith in our demand! Is that faith?We often worry how much faith in God will demand from us. And then while we worry we pray that our “faith” should be rewarded.The truth within you will lead the way, but first the mind must not find “easier” ways to reach the truth.If

you are living without faith in God you are living in denial of your

true Self. In that way of life even if you are “rich” in world ways and

appear to have all comforts to another…in reality you are as poor as a

beggar who has no peace only because he has denied his own inner

strength.Faith is not a

“gift” you give to God…in fact it is a reward one receives from within

when one has practiced with sincerity many a spiritual disciplines.For the worrier, his thoughts are his “treasure”…for the man of faith his “inner peace” is his breath of life.Faith

is not a desire that you can taste while you chase. In fact, it is when

you give up the taste for the chase that faith remains.Faith

is the determination that makes one’s mind remain awake to truth. A

mind that remains awake only to truth itself becomes the very source of

faith.Part of the book: 'Inspiring Thoughts'By Seema M.
