Why do we, knowing what's right, find it so hard to make that decision?
Why do we, knowing the consequences, find it so easy to go ahead with failure?
Why do we place our trust in people who time and again prove us wrong?
Why do we hang onto memories when time pushes us forward?
Why do we each create our own world to live in when the one outside exists?
HOPE? FAITH?
We cling onto things no longer worth our time and energy because we're willing to believe that they're better then they really are.
Who are we deluding? Ourselves?
When you put your Hope and Faith into things which do not last, neither will your Hope and Faith last very long.
What isn't eternal? It's eternally useless.
In a world that's constantly changing, placing your Faith and Hope into this life and its things are like putting them into a fragile crystal ball.
This life and the things in it are dust. Ashes. What lasts?
What lasts forever so that your Hope will never shatter?
If you are easily hurt, why not put your trust in somewhere worth placing?
Somewhere you know for certain for an eternity will never let you down or fail you. Somewhere it will bear fruits you can actually taste, and not hope and wish for something that always lingers far beyond your reach.
What's the risk of believing when you've believed in things worth far less?
Haven't you realised that for far too long we have been believing in things that aren't worth our time?
What harm is it then, to just risk a little 'sanity' of this world and believe in a God?

"I will bless you with a future filled with hope--a future of success, not of suffering."Why believe? Why NOT?debbie at 11:18 AM
