Always keep in mind, though, that faith is not a bully. Faith respects the free will of others and if they are unreceptive to its workings, faith will help as it can without violating the free will of anyone. You will find it fascinating to watch faith grow. It's even more fascinating to watch faith at work. You are furthering life-enriching values and opportunities for others in some sort of partnership with higher consciousness as it emanates outward toward all people.
Faith alone is a fascinating study.
A lifetime can be well spent in striving to become a person of true faith. However, sad to say, your beginner's faith usually degenerates. Flashes of success and wondrous manifestations of higher power or intelligence may dwindle in number and frequency. As your faith dwindles, you may begin to doubt everything. You may, as many do, doubt the existence of higher consciousness and consider yourself a fool for your enthusiastic conduct on the path.
