wisdom-wednesday-faith

Good morning and welcome to another edition to Wisdom Wednesday! I hope that you are enjoying the last few days of the summer with family, friends, and relaxation. I took a little time off from this blog to regroup and focus on developing upcoming series as well as creating some interesting collaborations. Before my hiatus, I focused on the virtue of bravery. Today’s virtue is faith.

Having and keeping the faith can be challenging. When we have faith it is not just challenged during the “good times”, it is tested during trouble and times of confrontation. When we are feeling demoralized or discouraged, this is when we need to keep the faith and call on God and others around us.

Faith means we believing and putting hope into that which we cannot see or have no meaning. People who have strong faith believe that things will somehow work out, believing that bad times will fade and everything will turn out fine. You can have faith with or without being religious because faith is a state of mind.
