Faith is a way of life on planet Earth for
both the lost and the saved. We flip switches and believe the light will come
on, by faith. We place our faith in restaurant cooks that they will not poison
our food. We have faith in the USDA seal of approval on our packaged food
products, believing they’re fit for our consumption. We place our faith in
total strangers, trusting that they will obey the red-light as we sail through
on the green. We pump colored liquid into the car’s tank, trusting that a
station owner whom we do not know is selling gasoline instead of amber water.
Oh, we have lots of faith; we continually
walk by faith. Here’s something that many of us misunderstand: Faith never lets
us down; the objects of our faith sometimes let us down.
