Leap of Faith
February 18th, 2008
When you believe in something that has no empirical evidence of occurring in present or near future, it is referred to as the Leap of Faith. No matter what may be the circumstances, there is an undeniable faith in God or the supernatural energy that guides us all. This faith helps us to keep going even in the troubled times. When the boat of life sails through the choppy waters, the element of faith in the supernatural guiding energy keeps us going.
The Church has always preached the faith in God. With the world talking about so much of negativities and witnessing wars, bombings, inhuman acts on children, women or the poor, it is only the Leap of faith that makes us believe that some day a new day would dawn with a Messiah or an avatar of God would come down on Earth to set all things right. The term was first used by Kirkegaard who used it in reference to Adam and Eve where he illicit how one faith leaps to another in search of better living.
