The recent podcast episodes have been shorter due to me soaking up the summer moments, just like you. &amp;nbsp; Let's talk about faith. This morning, thoughts about faith occupied my mind. Faith is believing in the unseen, embracing the promise that something remarkable awaits us. It's standing strong in uncertainty. &amp;nbsp; Imagine us chatting about the flip side of faith. If faith is trust, then doubt and darkness are its opposites. Here's the thing: faith is universal. It fuels our anticipation for the yet-to-come. It's the hope that lights up when we dream. But where we direct our faith matters. Choosing light means growth and unity, while unknowingly feeding negativity sows doubt. &amp;nbsp; Think about it: Where's your faith going? &amp;nbsp; It's an active force, not just an idea. Your choice shapes your journey. As you go about your day, ask: &amp;nbsp; Where does my faith belong?&amp;nbsp; To dreams, love, and growth? Or to fear, scarcity, and negativity? &amp;nbsp; &quot;God does not expect us to submit our faith to him without reason, but the very limits of our reason make faith a necessity.&quot; - Saint Augustine. &amp;nbsp; _REV. https:\/\/linktr.ee\/storminreverendnorman &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"Message to Our Kids","author_url":"http:\/\/messagetomykids.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/27632328\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/157169406"}
