Faith & Adonai

Faith, as I see it, goes way beyond the walls of denominations or any other sort of a sectoral segregation. Plainly put - Religion is a phenomenon that was man made, serving only to dice up a formerly human(e) society.

I speak of Faith and by Faith which i must state delves deeper. It is more than lighting a candle or taking dips in water. Faith is simple yet wondrous: Faith the size of a mustard seed can surely move mountains. It paves a way for you and me to find our identity in our creator, establishing an unshakable bond. By faith I know, that, no matter how many tribulations come my way, He will never let go. Silent prayers and songs of praise will never be unheard. The guarantee of His Blessed Assurance will never be doubted.

Jesus lived a life of utmost simplicity. In all the simple truths he taught, he never once spoke of dividing ourselves into complex microcosms based on what we think is the surest way to salvation. As apostle Paul mentioned- There is only one way: Him. Then why are wee seeking to find newer paths that meander their way around complexities that find no solutions? Why do we browbeat ourselves trying to keep up with rites and rituals, when at the end of the day, we only needed to accept and believe?
Why cant we just get back to the truth? It is never changing and most definitely the ultimate.
