You never lost your faith because you had
never had faith in God. You just had faith in Life. Confused? Let me make it
clear with the example of our own life. You had good education, good job,
beautiful wife/husband and children and your life was perfect and you thought
because you believed in God all good things happened in your life. Actually you
did not trust God but you trusted the kind of life you were living. Normally,
when humans get used to certain life style, they tend to think that it will
continue forever so you had faith in your life style and not in God. Back to
you, when your life turned bad and God didn’t answer your prayers, you put the
entire blame on him. You assumed you lost your faith not realizing that you
have never placed your faith in God. There is no such thing as losing faith.
The faith you had was because of your education, job, success, marriage life,
richness and friends. You had faith in those objects but not in God. When you
lost one of these objects, you tend to think that you lost your faith in God
but actually you didn’t had any faith in him. True faith becomes stronger when
life conditions move against you and not the other way round.
