What comes in your mind when you hear the word “faith “ ?
Probably if you are not an atheist u may think of a deity , prayers and your worships …..
But wait that is a very tiny place in the world of faith.. Faith can be had without any prayers or presence of a deity. Faith in one self, faith in one’s actions and beliefs, faith in the nation and its government, faith in the ruling party, faith in one’s strengths, and faith in your children are many such examples where faith is not associated with any prayers or hymns but it still exists. Faith goes a long way in making a person’s life happier and full of achievements.
Faith cannot be taught or imbibed in a person. It comes from within and is determiner in your attitude towards life.
Faith brings motivation and thus the strength and the enthusiasm in achievement of a goal are an important factor in deciding the success or failure of it. If Faith is lost, failure is imminent.
Faith is the foundation of any mission that a person undertakes and has a will to complete. A struggle becomes easier and the hurdles will fail to drag you down, if the faith to fight against all odds is firm.
Great men and saints lived their lives challenging the mainstream and living differently. They accomplished tasks and missions that ordinary men could not do. It was their faith that helped them achieve all this. Freedom fighters had faith in their country and themselves and won great battles and never felt disheartened in case of failures. They struggled till their last breath and won the country its independence because their Faith in the outcome of their heroic actions was firm.
Faith gave Alexander strength to march carrying his troops forward and conquer the whole world
Faith gave Lord Krishna the power to win the battle over evil forces
Faith gave determination to Swami Vivekananda to get rid of the most miseries faced by people.
Faith gave Louis Braille the will power to invent Braille script
Faith gave Mother Teresa the power to serve the poor, sick and destitute selflessly.
History and our own experiences have innumerable examples to make us believe that faith is the mother of success and the force of life

A quote by MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr. to sum up my writing ----- “Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
