It is a decision to live your life in such a way as to find meaning in it beyond the material things that the world says you must possess.
It is a decision to believe that there is more to life than meets the eye, and that life extends even beyond death.
It is a decision to be able to have a rock to hold on to even when all around you is chaos, even when people declare in the streets that all is hopeless, and that all is lost.

Loved this, Joyce. Have shared it on FB.
Hi Joyce .. as you say .. life is having faith and trust – all will be well and believing in ourselves, life and our faith are so important – giving us comfort and love in times of need.
Great thought for always .. and today – Hilary
I wish it could be easy to decide on having faith. There are many instances in our lives when things are against us and its hard to hope for a flicker of light. Still, faith has power that can only be realized if we allow it upon ourselves. 🙂
Joyce,
There’s a lot of beauty and truth to these words you write. I liked the idea that faith is a “decision to believe that there is more to life than meets the eye.” I agree that it’s the willingness to let go of what we think we know and see beyond.
Thanks for sharing this:~)
