where there is faith

I don't know if I have used this title yet or not... but, I am listening to this song, and it summarizes how I am feeling and a little bit about the last 48 hours. The words of this song are:

I believe in faithfulness
I believe in giving of myself for someone else
I believe in peace and love
I believe in honesty and trust but it’s not enough
For all that I believe may never change the way it is
Unless I believe Jesus lives

Where there is faith
There is a voice calling, keep walking
You’re not alone in this world
Where there is faith
There is a peace like a child sleeping
Hope everlasting in He who is able to
Bear every burden, to heal every hurt in my heart
It is a wonderful, powerful place
Where there is faith

There’s a man across the sea
Never heard the sound of freedom ring
Only in his dreams
There’s a lady dressed in black
In a motorcade of cadillacs
Daddy’s not coming back
Our hearts begin to fall
And our stability grows weak
But Jesus meets our needs if only we believe

Where there is faith
There is a voice calling, keep walking
You’re not alone in this world
Where there is faith
There is a peace like a child sleeping
Hope everlasting in He who is able to
Bear every burden, to heal every hurt in my heart
It is a wonderful, powerful place
Where there is faith

Yeah, I am a religious CHRISTIAN person... despite how drunk I may get and the choice words I use sometimes... but I am... and this wong helps me find peace. It really does. In a funny way, it is exactly what the little drummer boy was trying to say in his profile... FAITH. Why search? Just be faithful.

I was faithful today in a couple ways... Last night, I was taking out my contacts, and I dropped one on the floor. I stayed up for an hour looking for it. But strangely enough, I wasn't stressed out. I just went to bed. I knew I needed to go to bed. And I was tired. All that I kept thinking was, "there is a peace like a child sleeping." So, I went to sleep, woke up in 4 hours and as soon as I started my search again, I found it within 5 minutes. Faith. Today at church, I was convicted to give tithes. I haven't done this in a while... especially not since I have been away from my own church. Needless to say, I am not in the best financial situation. But, I gave 10% of my paycheck today... a good $20. I didn't have it to give... but I have faith.

I have faith concerning other things too. So much faith that I don't even need to address the subject.
