OK...Here's one for the masses....when someone tells you to "Keep the Faith" what does it mean to you...? I know what it means to me......I see this phrase used a great deal here and started to wonder what it meant to others...anyone care to share....?? Promise with this thread no-one will cut your heart out on your response...Stay safe and KEEP THE FAITH......Paul
Paul I think that what Cat said is the best expination beleving in the path God has chosen for you to take care of his children, Keeping then safe from harm.

Tony, thanks for the thought...love to see people think....To me there is a couple of meanings...BUT, my #1 thought here is.....Knowing that the other Firefighters are there and will be there if and whenever they are needed....and being one that would do the same for another...#2....Believing in the "path" that we have chosen to follow as the "right path" for us....Sort of a silly blog....but it emans a greatdeal to us deep down....it all comes down to trustand faith.....Stay safe Brother................remember to keep the faith.......Paul

G'day Paul. I came to your page for this very reason - I'm curious about exactly what you mean by "Keep the Faith"? I don't recall seeing it written by anyone else.
Then I see what Luke has written above, and I understand that and can agree. I also understand what Cat wrote, though it doesn't apply to me as I have no religious faith. Both are good readings of your statement.
Do you say it with a specific meaning? Or is it a general statement for people to use as they will? I think the second reason I've given.
