The essence of faith is humility. The recognition we need something greater than us.
As I get older, most people I've seen lose their faith do so because of a lack of humility. While they may feel broken, their ego doesn't allow them to see a way out of their pain. We see hardship, we want things our way, and often we feed our ego by making proclamations on our creator.
But there is another way. As this humility led homesteaders in the 1800s to build churches and be there all day on Sunday. It can lead us to our knees, to our church, to our bible.
Enjoy the crackle! That is where the life is.
