...“bad faith” is a phrase which justifies the lack of belief in free choice.
Toxic Antithesis for Clair Drucker
Read this on a post this morning and I thought it could use some perusal.
Just how bad is my faith? Is it justifiable or just fine thank you.
I believe in freedom of choice. Do I exercise that belief and get the most out of the power that is available to me? Or, do I just know, and do nothing about it?
Always thought of faith as a positive thing. I know a little goes a long way. I whole lot strengthens me. I have faith in the AA program. I have faith in the 12 Steps. I believe they are a tool that fits any nut that walks through the doors of recovery. I thought that was very derogatory when I first heard it but found it to be very true. I was one of the biggest, it fit me so why wouldn't it fit someone else.
My hope turned into faith. My faith turned into a connection to my Higher Power. Have I maintained that connection or have I turned it into an Ego?
Faith without works is dead. Work without faith, gets me nowhere.
How does your faith measure up?
