Faith

Faith is what awakens us,
it gives us a hand when
we need it the most,
it guides us through
what we feel, see and hear
it comforts us in times like these.
Faith in its essence gives us strength,
to move forward with courage
and confidence; it is as reliable
as the sun arising on the horizon
each morning to bring us a brighter day.
Faith appears when we listen closely
and discover how much more
there is to learn, grow and mature;
a plant may need all the natural elements
to support it but it also needs tender
loving care.
That's how faith seems to be,
if we are trusting enough to try
it will nurture you like a soft
children's lullaby.
