As a young person I heard the phrase ‘keep the faith’.

My conclusion then was;

• A religious statement that meant nothing….bible bashing
• Something you would say if you were a gospel singer
• What is faith anyway……just words….

When I experienced serious depression and anxiety in my life my world suddenly felt like it had crumbled around me. I remembered that phrase ‘keep the faith’ ……so I clung on to the thought that by having faith it could bring me hope and this is what it has done for me 30 years later

• Faith gave me something to believe in…myself
• A strength within that I tapped into and found confidence and reached personal goals that I never thought I could ever accomplish
• My faith gave me happiness and a husband and a child I could call my own.
• Seeking out what ‘I’ wanted out of my ‘own’ life…… I was trusting my own thoughts, beliefs and then faith gave me purpose.
• I got well and with my faith in God, family and friends I can give back now what was given to me…..

Something I read and I love it!

Faith is like the wind…… you can’t see it…….but you know it’s there…………………
