Nobody has ever before asked the nuclear family to live all by itself in a box the way we do. With no relatives no support we've put it in an impossible situation.
The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.
Without faith nothing is possible. With it nothing is impossible.
It's possible that the 2012 general-election race will be the least overtly religious one since 1972 the last campaign before Roe v. Wade and the rise of Jimmy Carter brought evangelicalism into the political mainstream. That's because faith remains a complicated issue for Obama who is still wrongly thought to be a Muslim in some quarters.
When Christians start thinking about Jesus things start breaking down they lose their faith. It's perfectly possible to go to church every Sunday and not ask any questions just because you like it as a way of life. They fear that if they ask questions they'll lose their Christ the very linchpin of their religion.
Wal-Mart doesn't really care about your faith. Wal-Mart cares if you have money to spend and it is going to be as generic as possible in exploiting the holiday season for every buck it can make.
Basically there are two paths you can walk: faith or fear. It's impossible to simultaneously trust God and not trust God.
Even if a unity of faith is not possible a unity of love is.
Faith is the first factor in a life devoted to service. Without it nothing is possible. With it nothing is impossible.
Faith makes all things possible... love makes all things easy.
