What you need to remember is this, 'There is someone who loves me very dearly, and is taking care of me at all times. He cannot be without me and He is all capable of removing any lack that I have'. Knowing this brings such joy to your life.

Faith Makes You Soar

A cute, new-born is helpless and dependent on others up to 5-10 years of age.

Similarly, when we get on in years and wisdom, we may also become dependent on others.

The time in-between is ideal to make a difference and contribute to the world. How can you make more of an impact? It is as simple as these five letters - F.A.I.T.H.

In this time period, we will be able to do only as much as our capabilities allow us to do. What you are doing now is something you may not be able to do so well 20 years from now. So we are all dependent on both time and our capabilities. However, when we remember that there is a Supreme Power which belongs to us so totally, which is capable of fulfilling all our needs, and which is with us at all times, then this strong faith can keep us happy at all times.

When you have faith, you will not feel weak and insecure in your old age because you know that there is someone who is all-powerful who is taking care of you and protecting you at all times. So having faith alone can be an anchor of your happiness.

As age progresses, our strengths and capabilities may diminish. This is the natural flow of life. As people grow old, many become dejected and insecure and their faces are a reflection of the dejection and insecurities they are going through.  Their face reflects only misery and sorrow. The older they get the more miserable they become. But for one who has strong faith, it is not like this at all. For a devotee, even old age is joyous and filled with happiness. He smiles more and more, and is happy at all times because a devotee thinks, 'Oh, I have seen a lot in life. I have known and understood it all. I am happy and content from within. God is there with me at all times to fulfill all of my needs and give me strength in times of hardships'.

With this deep feeling of faith, a devotee remains ever happy.

This is something we all must remember. This is why spirituality is very essential in life. It is spirituality that brings happiness, enthusiasm, intuition, self-realization and the fulfillment of all that one wishes.
