My faith gives me power and I use it for good. <\/p>\n
Faith is probably one of the most used words to describe ones belief in a deity. However, what is amazing is that a lot of people who claim they have faith do not live lives that are happy, content and harmonious. <\/p>\n
They are usually chaotic and problematic, and only when they are in deep trouble do they call on their faith, which many times do not bring the results they desire. <\/p>\n

However, majority of people try to relate to a God up there, thus separating themselves from a God who is with us, which to me means a separation from our good. <\/p>\n
Faith as power can be felt only through a personal relationship with that God, and what can be more personal than that which is within ourselves? <\/p>\n
