THE STRUGGLE BETWEEN REASON AND FAITH

THE STRUGGLE BETWEEN REASON AND FAITH
===========================================
1. Reason tells you that whatever you are thinking is correct and the best and only solution.
2. But when the best efforts of reason fail, you know there must a HiGHER REASON which is breaking your small designs.
3. Reason tells you that the task you have been given is impossible to achieve with your small efforts and the difficulties that surround you.
4. Faith tells you that there is something beyond reason which can make the impossible possible, and that is the Power of God.
5. Faith tells you that the apparent difficulties dissolve in the Light of God.
6.Faith also tells you that your perfect reason was not that perfect at all, and if your plans are shattered it is only to give you a Divine Plan made by God,
7. Reason tells you that a human sized Hanuman cannot jump across such a vast ocean. But Faith tells you that all he has to say is "Jai Shri Rama" and he will go across.
8. Reason tells you That Lord Rama was helpless all alone in the forests, but Faith tells you that this WAS his LEELA, Meant only to create the Ramayana and to give salvation to those people who were serving the Lord, which would never have been possible otherwise.
9. Reason tells you that you are going to die in a hospital when doctors give up all hope. But Faith tells you that there is a Power greater than the power of Medicine which can save you even then.
10, But in the rat race of materialistic life, sadly, it is only Reason that triumphs over Faith. And this happens because the Faith of the person is not strong enough and loses courage when it hands itself over to Reason.
11. Reason tells you that you are going to lose your wealth, while Faith tells you that nothing was yours in the beginning and it was all going to be left behind in any case in the world when you die.
12. FAITH TELLS YOU THAT GOD HAS DONE SO MANY MIRACLES FOR YOU IN THE PAST AND WILL DO SO AGAIN-- BUT REASON TELLS YOU:
"NO! YOU MUST RELY ON REASON ALONE, FAITH IS USELESS!"
