The Light between My Hands

I had a small light between my hands but a strong wind came and blew it out.And I felt cold and looked for a torch, which gave me light and warmth but the wind came back and blew out the fire of the torch.

Then, I put together one thousand and even more torches but the wind came back, blew and blew and put them out.
I looked at the sky and there was a star and I said: "There, is light" but the wind moved the clouds over and I could not found the star anymore.
Everything became darker and the wind became icier blowing with great force and even seemed to shout me; the sky seemed to fall down on me. I felt cold again and started shivering, I could not see, it was as facing an abyss, which was everywhere, without horizon, without been able to tell up or down apart, it was total darkness. I felt alone but when darkness seemed to be in total control of everything, then, a light appeared and I felt warmth and I could see what I could not see before and I looked beyond, even beyond the stars, I crossed the clouds, the sky and everything was opened to me, I got my strength back and was strengthened even more as that light was getting bigger.
And I asked: "What's your name?" And she answered with only one word that ends all darkness, all loneliness, all discouragement and lack of hope when she said: " My name although small is the greatest among all names: Faith."
