What Makes Our Dreams Come
True
Now faith is the substance of things
hoped for.-Hebrews Ill.
By REV. WALTER B. BROCK

Another translation of this great
text is, Faith is the giving substance
of things hoped for" That is to say,
faith is the power that gives reality to
our hopes. Faith is the power that
makes our dreams come true. Human
hopes are shadowy, insubstantial
things; it is faith that gives substance
to them. Mere hopes are castles built
in Spain; faith gives them bricks and
mortar Faith transforms the proph-
cts vision into a fact of everyday
life. Faith transforms the inventors
idea into a machine that lifts the bur
den of toll from the shoulders of the
weary. Faith transforms the patriots
dream of "alabaster cities undimmed
by human tears" into real cities where
little children and old people may
dwell in freedom and security.
Many people in the middle ages be-
lieved that there was an unknown
continent hidden in the distant West
ern sea-a tabled Island of Atlantis
pictured by the poets of old. But only
Columbus had the faith, the courage,
the conviction to turn that vague hope
into living reality. Each one of us
cherishes a beautiful dream of what
the future may hold in store, of what
we ourselves may become. How many
of US have the faith, the courage, the
conviction to make that dream come
true?
