Pi in the Sky

Saturday, May 20, 2006

I did morning jogs/walks for three days in a row now, which is still a shock to me, quite frankly. But the strange thing is, I would record the location at which I first stopped jogging and started walking...and as days go on, those locations get closer and closer to the starting point... Am I not supposed to improve over each day? Or maybe I just need to relax the muscles before continuing? I don't know.

Naively, I'm still waiting for a response from Francis over a couple of emails that I wrote about a month ago. Realistically, I think I'm crazy.

Struggle on faith... See, on one hand, faith is hard, because I need to believe something that I cannot see. On the other hand, Jesus said that faith is easy, just believe like a little children would believe. It's very hard, then, for grown adults like me to have faith, isn't it? I want to believe that Jesus is in my heart, working in me. But this belief shouldn't be based on flimsy words and feelings, it should be based on concrete evidence. And what does the Bible tell us about what this evidence is? It's faith! "Faith is the evidence of things not seen," says the writer of Hebrews. Now I'm just dumbfounded. No wonder the gospel is for the simpletons...the complexity inside me makes it unnecessarily difficult.
