Faith


Since all that is was ever bound to be; Since grim, eternal laws our Being bind; And both the riddle and the answer find, And both the carnage and the calm decree; Since plain within the Book of Destiny Is written all the journey of mankind Inexorably to the end, since blind And mortal puppets playing parts are we: Then let’s have faith; good cometh out of ill; The power that shaped the strife shall end the strife; Then let’s bow down before the Unknown Will; Fight on, believing all is well with life; Seeing within the worst of War’s red rage The gleam, the glory of the Golden Age.

A Little Faith

You of little or no Faith
why don't you trust in God
Why do you walk in doubt fear and defeat
Spawned by Shaitan the liar thief and fraud

For you know in your heart that God is Faithful
And wants only what is best for you
Never would he allows you to go through more
Than you could bare ,So....preserve
Turn to the God and He will help you through

If you have Faith the size of a mustard seed
You can say move and the mountain will move
Nothing will be impossible for you with God
What seemed hopeless will always improve

So..no matter what trial you are facing
Don't run face it and keep the Faith
Draw near to the God and trust Him
Than pray and believe ....you will be okay
All it takes is Faith the size of a mustard seed

Gods Flight

On the ground sits a bird
that's too afraid to fly.
Beautiful wings could make it soar,
but the pain of past failure is it's lonesome cry.

God has said unto this bird,
"Trust and have faith in me,
for I will carry you in your flight.
The miracle of life is waiting for you to see."

The bird said to God, "But I can't fly.
I am weak. I will fall and feel pain
It's happened before when I tried to fly.
I'm afraid of being hurt again."

His voice soft and reassuring, God said to the bird,
I created you, and I will protect you.
Your lonesome cry I have heard.
Have faith in me. That's all you need to do.

So, stand up, bird, and spread your wings.
The wings I lovingly created to let you fly.
If you fall I'll pick you up,
and lift you back into the sky."

With trembling legs and unsure wings
the bird finally looked to the sky.
It took a deep breath, and took the chance.
The bird began to fly.

"Thank you, God, for believing in me.
Thank you for giving me wings.
Thank you for your protecting hands.
Your glory I will now sing."

God smiled unto the bird
in its majestic flight.
"Little bird, I'll always be with you,
and will protect you with all my might.

You may stumble. You may fall.
That doesn't mean that I don't care.
I will watch over you, in case you need help,
and then I'll be right there."

The little bird, once so scared,
learned to soar to new heights.
The occasional fall no longer scared the bird,
choosing to have faith in Gods flight.

Love faith and trust are
the words so closely related
in meaning and in our lives
It is hard to imagine Love
without faith and trust.

You might have faith in some one
but not necessarily the love.
You could also trust some one
but still you might not love.

Faith and trust are not dependent
on Love but surely the love
is dependent on both trust and
the faith in the one you love.

Love without faith or trust
is anything but the Love.
Relation is maintained just
as a shadow of true Love.
