What Is Faith?

What is faith?
The dictionary says
“complete trust or confidence
in someone or something.”
The Bible says
“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for,
the conviction of things not seen.”
The Second Step says, “came to believe
a Power greater than ourselves
could restore us to sanity,”
enhanced by the Third,
“Made a decision  to turn our will
and our lives over to the care of God
as we understood him.”
I would define faith as trusting,
believing there is a Power
able to do what I can’t do
and if you can do more than I can
it doesn’t matter to me
because what you do…or can do…
is none of my business.
So when I find a relationship
comfortable t0 me,
and if it is comfortable to me
it’s going to be comfortable for God
because if I have it wrong he’s not going
to allow my comfort there.
So my faith…and yours…
are our own business and
nobody can say we’re wrong.
Having faith is good, it’s right.
