Where There is Doubt

Where there is doubt: 

here, where there is doubt, faith, we're not asked the impossible but to only recognize the changing nature of our lives. Our faith is placed on acceptance of the present moment, things being as the are, yet with a conviction that a greater presence guides us, lovingly, along the way. This present might be different for many, for Saint Francis it was Jesus, for others it might be their commitment to a particular practice that brings them a sense of peace and understanding. 

our faith is in the transformation of the moment.

by whatever means this happens. 

but always there's a surrender, as faith ultimately calls for a letting go, and through this the transformation happens. If we cling to anything as it changes we add suffering to the challenge, causing a difficult situation to worsen to despair. The prayer of Saint Francis asks only for the courage to have faith in our innate capacity to love, that we have a quality deeply hidden in our heart that arises to the suffering of ourselves and others and carries us through these times.

I have faith in a loving heart.

it belongs to me, a gift...

I give to you.

shared.

I love you, Eric
