Faith. It can't be proven or disproven or it would be scientific theory. We live in faith the Sun will rise in the morning because it always had though there is no proof that it will for certain or that we will be here to see it rise. It just does.


Faith is like a candle that flickers when a strong wind blows and we cover the flame so it won't blow out. Some people want to use our flame to burn us and some want it to blow out to prove there is no flame.


Keeping the flame steady so there is a light in the world full of rocky shores and boats at sea is what we are each charged with. According to Matthew 5 14 we are not supposed to hide our little light on a hill but let it shine forth so others can see in the darkness too.

Leanna Crawford Wiki - Rolling Stone Magazine So the recently assassinated Charlie Kirk postulated that the popularity of Donald Trump, Zohran Mamdani and his own is caused by a feeling of distress in America that everyone is feeling. With this seemingly political assassination these do suddenly seem like distressing times and would have once been for those of us who formerly worried. '“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?
