A single day can open up a vastness that is beyond our comprehension, inviting either fear or worship, or a little of each. And so, ordinary as we are, we are also born to greatness. There is more here, there is more everywhere, than meets the eye. Life is short, shorter as each day comes and goes. But our lives are suspended in the middle of a vast eternity of possibility.
Faith is essential, if faith is the opposite of fear.
I can open my eyes and sail into the future or I can close them and be seized by the future. In either case, the future will come. Faith gives eyes. Fear brings blindness. In either case, the world marches on.
