sqrl, I'm sorry if I disappoint you on this one, but faith is very, very clear to me. It is breathed into every aspect of my life, my thoughts, my actions, my emotions, my strengths, my weaknesses, my right doing, my wrong doing, what propels me forward in my quest for self-improvement. It is my strength, it is my rock, it is what anchors me in the violent storms of life, bp, relationships...everything. I seek God's will with an open heart, an open mind, with constant meditation and especially prayer. I speak to God consistantly and constantly. I surround myself with his presence, his Glory and most importantly His perfect Love. This is not to say that sometimes I'm not frusterated, unruley and willful and decide to do things my way instead of His way, but I always pay for it. And it becomes a learning experience. I am open to His corrections of my mistakes. I believe that it is God that has stretched me on my path to forgiveness and ultimately peace. On this I do not waver. Of some things I am completely certain and this is because of 30 years of searching and finally "coming home" in a spiritual sense of "coming home".

Some things in life, well, my life, are not up for debate or questioning. I am willing however, to question my methods sometimes, my thoughts, how I'm standing in my own way of spiritual advancement. But I never doubt Him or His Word.

This is difficult to talk about without stepping over boundaries, perhaps I already have, but it is my responsibitlity to proclaim Him.

I am a child of God.
