Crisis of faith

I don’t remember the day I was born, taking my first steps, or speaking my first words.

Yet, I can be sure it happened.

Because people I trust told me it happened.

We have more faith than we give ourselves credit for.

So why do we find faith a difficult subject to talk about in our culture? It is faith that helps us build a world that doesn’t exist yet. It’s faith that keeps us going on a project that has a high chance of failure. It is faith that helps pull us through a tragedy.

The problem in our culture today is that once we lose faith in our own abilities, we will turn to others to make decisions for us.

We need more faith not only in ourselves and our ability to solve difficult problems, but also in humanity's ability to overcome the problems of the past and future.
