Interstate 40 To Joy

Faith fosters joy or disappointment.  There are all manner of ways in which we practice faith, we all believe the sun will rise, oxygen will continually be available, the earth will rotate, gravity will always work, and our heart will keep beating, all complete acts of faith.  Also humans are worthy of our faith, which is why we readily drive on the interstate, invest with people we don’t know, board planes and trains and store our money in other people’s buildings.  But when it comes to God we want the facts while facing eternity as if we would place gravity in the dock and demand proof by jumping off the ledge. 


Faith is to joy what the interstate is to getting to a distant lover.
