Belief and Faith

"Belief and Faith"

In their most central natures
Belief and faith are twin opposites

Belief requires an object
Faith requires non-object

Belief is something held
Faith is about letting go

Belief provides answers
Faith offers questions

Belief aims at certainty
Faith leads to mystery

Belief supports integrity
Faith evokes majesty

Belief seeks redemption
Faith enjoins grace

Belief is a noun
Faith is a verb

Belief is a memento of spirit
Faith is spirit moving in the world
