Hope and faith can be likened to seeds containing powerful synergistic energy, dormant in life, and waiting for someone to place them into the soil of their mind by their thoughts to grow.
Hope and faith are dynamic energies available for our utilization. Therefore, there is the need to utilize them, to apply them, using our actions, our karmas.
A seed when planted needs to be nurtured with water and sunlight, and all weeds must be removed, which may grow around it to choke it out. So, it is with the seeds of hope and faith. They must be equally tended to by each individual planter as they plant these seeds firmly in their minds. It is with a strong focused intellect these seeds are then watered, as the planter creates the nurturing powerful thoughts to accommodate their growth. The intellect must remain steady and clearly focused on its loving goal. It must do so moment by moment throughout each day, as it faces the voices of the noisy weedish clamor, and the challenges of our world. Our application with its clear potential, made through the thoughts of the planting of the seeds of hope and faith, is ready to meet all challenges, as it denies any adverse thinking. This denial of adverse thoughts removes the clouds of the mind and provides the light of nurturing sunlight, which gently calls on the seeds of hope and faith to sprout and grow. It is this application born out of the thoughts of one’s applied beliefs, along with the applied actions of that belief, which makes the actions of hope and faith become manifested in one’s life.
