Day 1029: Faith, what is it exactly?

Faith is believing in that which you cannot see or understand  – that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s 2  : 19  PM on day 1029 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, stretch my hamstrings, try to clean myself in the bathroom – I still can’t do it by myself properly but I’m getting there 🙂 –  brush my teeth,  feed myself a boiled egg and  All Bran Flakes for breakfast, read Joshua 12, publish my Disability of the Day feature,  practice typing with both hands,  tweet and Facebook about my campaign – still no luck – and play outside with my brother – kids can  be brutally honest when I got outside my brother was playing Cricket by himself so I said come, I’ll throw to which he said matter-of-factly you can’t throw properly he didn’t mean it in a mean way he was just being honest as only kids can be but his words stung because I’m acutely aware that I can’t play with him like my sister plays with him it’s moments like that that I wish I inhabited a typical body oh well I guess we don’t always get what we wish for 🙁   

The morning I was thinking about all the stories of miracles  told in The Bible the fall of the wall of Jericho, water pouring out of a stone  and others and although I believed that God did perform those miracles I couldn’t understand how it defied science but then  I thought of my own life God is using someone that the world considers broken to give people water and to feed people and and and I still don’t know how He’s doing most of the things He’s doing through me all I know is that He is doing it I guess that’s what faith is believing in that which you cannot see or understand.  Do you have faith?
