Finding Faith in Life

Life goes so fast. It becomes a blur for many including myself. Until something happens that is so impossible that the thought hadn’t even crossed our minds. The death of a loved one suddenly, a plane crash, the diagnosis of cancer in a child, a miscarriage or a traumatic accident. Life can also have amazing surprise moments that one could have never dreamt. A newborn in her mother’s arms who thought the day would never happen, a scholarship given to a child that they thought would never speak or the gift of life to a stranger when all hope was loss. For me, it is more simple,  a unexpected check in the mail,  a stranger buying you coffee or even another car letting you in.
We often wonder or I do at least, what the world is all about. What defines our life? Why are we here? Is it for a greater purpose? I believe so or really I know so.  My faith has given me the road to see the light when others simply can not. I have decided to write, so others can have the hope when all seems lost. Even a flicker of light within us to know God is to know the peace that is ahead of us.  
The journey of life is hard. It is rocky and uncertain. But if we have faith it can get us where ever we need to go. Peace can come from a sunset, a calm summer’s day or a baby's smile. I see peace all over. Do you?
I often find myself hesitating to share what I have the ability to see. I am not sure of the reason why. I am sure it is part of not wanting to make a foul of myself and part of not wanting to upset others. I have decided to write not only about my faith but my dreams that often give me a glimpse of what is to come, either here on earth or from a place that is so amazing we cant even phantom the beauty and peace.
