THE TRUE MEANING OF FAITH

Contributed by Adelle on Thursday, 30th March 2006 @ 03:45:11 AM in AEST
Topic: spiritual



Have you ever wondered the meaning of faith?
I was in bed feeling all-alone
In a strange place longing for my earthly home
I thought if I believed strong enough
I’d live even if the battle would be tough
With all my might,
I began my fight
But the harder I fought
The weaker I got
I was told
I must let go of my strong hold
So in the darkness of the night
I prayed with all my might
As I struggled for breath
Realizing I was facing death
Questioning should I fight?
Or do I give up my might?
Then the lord replied awe, my dear
Finally you will hear!
For the lord sayeth
The true meaning of faith
Is to do my will!
I know your looking at the hill
You say it’s too high to climb
. But let go of your breath
For the end is not death
Fear not nor be dismayed
Let Christ be your aid
Though his call may seem rough
It is not tough
For your reward will be with God in heaven
So fear not my friend,
For your new assignment will be
coming home to me.
