Faith complements hope

A beam of hope like a spark that stems from the heart can never be ignored. Faith that grows by learning to believe in what the heart and mind would desire to follow shall often give rise to hope that makes an individual take a step forward with a strong affirmation. The sky is the limit as the saying still prevails, no wonder many continue to hold on to its importance, as nothing remains an impossibility when one has the will to attain what one is determined to gain. Destiny can be changed; some shall believe in strongly when they project themselves as self-made individuals whose faith and hope have been instrumental in re-shaping their lifelines.

A tension-ridden mind often loses clarity and vision. An individual who leads a care-free life never feels the spirit of determination. One whose will power is strong, is the one who shall consciously go forward to write his destiny. Some things in life are said to be inevitable, yet one who is willed shall re-define the unavoidable as a possibility, to see himself in a place where he desires himself to be seen. Faith enlightens hope and strengthens one’s power of the will. Will power which we often call as one’s determined desire to chase after one’s aspirations in life, grows from faith one holds, that gives hope for one to reaffirm that he will work towards attaining it in due course.

However, he who clings on to both faith and hope firmly shall sustain a positive outlook when encountered by any challenging situation. To live life with a care-free approach and walk towards one’s targets taking great leaps, the in-built faith that generates and complements hope is vital to nurture and foster so that every step one takes in life will be taken with courage. No matter what one may say, a leap of faith is often needed for one to gain one’s heart’s desires and the hope one holds to be determined to go on and secure what one intends to take control of shall always become its stimuli. Nevertheless, many may often struggle to believe in the power of faith when circumstances one is encountered by becoming tormenting.

Many a time when life changes its course, individuals begin to doubt what life would offer, despite the hopeful attitudes one shall dwell upon. With a positive mind when one keeps moving on, if every encounter one shall be faced with becomes merely a negative confrontation, it is natural that one may lose hope and stop believing in the impossibility becoming a possibility. The human mind, therefore, is accustomed to functioning in this manner and one’s own beliefs may suddenly become disbelief. However, those who are strongly faith driven and shall go forward in faith will only be motivated to go on until they see clarity to help unveil the vision they have set for themselves to attain.
