Overrated

 Faith can be a bit overrated.  People say, “I have the correct faith, so I am OK.”  But faith of this kind is a dogma in the head.  It is an idea.  But what about action?  Action to be of service to faith must be about behavior and behavior must be about Love.  Action, in which one goes to war over faith, is bad behavior.  Unfortunately, people of bad faith can have a lifetime of bad behavior while thinking themselves just fine.  Everyone else is the mess as they see it.  Correct action in love takes humility.  Faith as an idea requires no humility.  Such non-humble faith is for the “righteous.”

  1. It took me three times reading to get the sense of that .and I'm glad I finally got it.
    I pray that I am never "righteous".
