Fatigue can make it hard to have faith. Too much busyness can make it hard to have faith. Too much of too little solitude can impact faith. For that matter, so can a bout of hunger or overwork, anything carried to an extreme. Faith thrives on routine. Look at any monastery and you will see that. Faith keeps on keeping on. Julia Cameron
About This Quote

Faith is a matter of the heart. It is not a matter of intellect. In fact, faith can be a refuge from intellect. Faith is an idea that becomes a way of life.

Faith in God allows us to believe in things we cannot see or touch. Faith in ourselves and our abilities make us better people, and it helps us to do our best at what we do even when we face challenges. It also helps us to be confident about the future and not let the past hold us back from doing what we want to do right now.
