Faith

By mysticventures

Secure in the wisdom of the truths that one knows

Through comfort and security confidence grows

Nourished by confidence in the heart I am born

Apart from the soul, I can never be torn

Belief and conviction they both play a part

For I am the essence that stems from the heart

Rising slowly at first through love and conviction

Suddenly I leap and reach full fruition

Wrought by primordial influence was bade

Through me came all that is and was made

For it is by strength alone that I can create

All the potential is yours, unless I abate

With me you will prosper and live without fear

Just listen to your heart and know that I'm near

With firmness of grip I'll lead you by hand

And deliver you undaunted to the promised land

For miracles abound and mountains I've moved

All through the hearts of the souls I have soothed

Put your trust in me and cast away doubt

For nothing I am, if belief your without

  • A former member wrote: Over the years my beliefs turned to ideas and questions. At the young age of five I would questin my mother about God and our "faith" in him. She told me it is healthy to question him. It shows we care enough to think of him...

  • A former member wrote: The more I thought and questioned, the more I began to learn of my faith. I had non in Him, and never did. I believed in "god" because of tradition...

  • A former member wrote: Let me correct that. I thought he existed because of tradition...

  • A former member wrote: I rather enjoyed this poem. It made me feel... well... just feel. I look at this poem not as faith in the christian god or any other god, but as whatever it is that life thrives upon. =-MO-=

  • A former member wrote: Okay, let me try and restate that comment...I've always had false faith...in everyone, be it God, other people, or myself...so that last line hit me hard.

    belief is everything, and what makes life purposeful. All it takes is belief in someone, and you are free.~Mikey
