Poem

Faith

Faith is the insight of truth hope and love
Those who don’t acknowledge it don’t see the human condition for what it is
A complex mixture of reason and emotion
They devalue the emotive ingredient
in the recipe of what we are
Faith surpasses the human condition called logic
It’s the residue when questions have no answers
Faith is God’s gift to those who see without seeing and know without understanding
It forms the missing link between what we know of God and what we don’t
It’s the gap in our inability too comprehend his actions, or often the lack of.
It’s more understood by those who have suffered and retained it
Than those who have suffered and rejected it
It can never be grasped by those who are not open to the experience of it
The reality is that faith cannot be obtained or appreciated without giving into its existence
For without faith doubt becomes the seed of disbelief
True faith is trusting God
