Man of faith is man of excellence

Faith is the energy with which man faces the various facets of life. It is not merely an energy but also an inspiration. It propels man to reach heights unscaled till then. It gives man tireless zeal and unceasing hope.

***

It has a way of finding likeminded people so that the wise man does not suffer from pangs of desperate loneliness.

***

Of course it has its moments of seeming decline, but very soon it recovers frojm temporary setbacks. It is here that good company plays a big role. Good company is God-reminding company.

***

Faith is the link between the maker and the made. It never lets man fear or temble. It gives strength to the timid, hope for the hopeless, cheer for the cheerless. It is a beaconlight to those to those who need a path in life. It is infectious as it spreads far and wide. Lord Krishna, in the Gita constantly assures Arjuna, that he who has faith will never come to ill.

***

Faith is the fragrance of flower of life. It is necessary to believe in the Lord and that too without any reservation. To believe Constantly, Continuously, Consistently and Courageously. Faith springs from the inner depths of oneself. It is a rare combination of brain and heart. It is a lovely amalgamation of thought and feeling.

***

It encompasses belief in the maker and concern for the creatures. It excludes hatred from life because hatred is negative. Hatred is born out of Supreme Selfishness. It is emotional cancer. It kills your appetite and spoils your sleep.

***

Faith is positive, it makes you grow while hatred stunts your growth. It brings out the best in you. The man of faith is a man of excellence. It is for better living here and salvation thereafter. Faith is the anchor in the stormbeaten condition of life. It gives life a support, a sustenance, a source of energy.

***

Faith is a shield. It protects man from external and internal enemies too. It raises man to divine heights. It adds charm to the person. It creates a new confidence in man which lights up the very personality of man. He radiates delight wherever he goes. He befriends all and hates none. He carries the torch of wisdom and solve many a problem.

***

Faith gives man strength in his lonely moments. Man realises that he is not alone. In every movement he sees the hand of God, in every word the breath of His grace. He slowly realises that a greater power than himself is at work.

***

Faith gives meaning to life and sets fresh goals for man to achieve. Those who have the Lord with them need not worry about anything. Success is a foregone conclusion for them. They win every battle because their minds are pure and intention unsullied. Their dedication to virtues and values gives them strength to survive every storm. They save themselves and those who depend on them.__ Excerpts from "Kshetravani"
