Faith means
hearing God's word,
whether written in the bible
or spoken to our spirit,
and then
radically,
tenaciously,
and continuously
modifying our thoughts and actions
to wholeheartedly align
with that word.
Faith often requires
a significant
and sweeping
paradigm shift
that may vehemently
fly in the face of
every ounce of
our logic,
reason,
circumstance,
and experience.
But
without this kind of faith
we are doomed
to either
mediocrity
or misery.
