Some people readily announce – at every opportunity – that they BELIEVE or have FAITH in the Creator. Yet in the way they LIVE, especially privately, in thought and action, they often fail to show it.
What’s more, despite what they profess, these same people, in speaking about their goals, and/or problems they face, they complain about “enemies”, “forces”, “agents” holding their “progress”, “blessings” or even their “destinies”!
How is it possible for a person who truly lives with faith, to be at the perpetual mercy of such evil or ungodly influences?
That just does not add up.
As a result of their above described mental attitudes, many of these people go out of their way to put all sorts of “safety nets” in place, from a just-in-case disposition!
Examples: cutting corners while rationalising that you’re just being realistic; compromising to lower your ethical or moral values/standards in exchange for a concession you seek etc.
Truth is you either believe whole-heartedly (it’s called “blind and unquestioning faith”) or you don’t.
You need no safety nets if you do.
Simply let go and take daily action with confidence based on your faith, to pursue your goals.
This has nothing to do with religion. It is simply a spiritual principle. Every human being is capable of exercising faith and can therefore apply this principle successfully in his/her life!
Like the gentleman whose 2 Facebook post previews and links I share below:
1. Lonnie Robinson story of “being through hell and back” is real and amazing. You need to read it to fully appreciate it.

My Testimony:
“I do not have the Right—to remain silent!”
The Trophy was given to me by the students at the School of Justice for “enriching their lives!
Every student (800), faculty and staff member has heard my Testimony. They witness me excel in class. I chose to take this picture with this Trophy (over my degree or academic award) because it is inscribed to Mr. Lonnie! And it say’s—you are One in a Million!
You see, this is so heartfelt—because it wasn’t long ago—when I use to “literally” be called—a piece of shit! Thank you Jesus! For miraculously transforming my life, from—Shit to Sugar!
My Testimony;
I’m a 62 year old ‘poor’ black male who has literally been through hell and back—to get to this juncture in my life! I was born raised and still reside in district 5—the most impoverished and crime infested district within the City of Miami Florida. District 5 is an inner-city Ghetto!

2. In this 2nd post, he publishes a definition of FAITH in form of a photo illustration that’s spot on!
