Miscellaneous Thoughts on Faith

2 Azamat 164 B.E. – May 18, 2007

I Walk by Faith

I walk by faith across a plain of burning forest,
Through grass that crackles with each footstep,
Up mountain paths that ascent an almost vertical slop,
I walk by faith, but not alone.

He is with me as I stroll life’s cluttered ways,
He holds my hand or carries me toward the hidden destination,
He guides me on the road to immortality,
He is the light that shines through the Gate of Paradise.

I walk by faith across cold hydrogen,
Knowing that subatomic particles fill my lungs,
With oxygen atoms that give me breathe to proclaim,
His love to a harsh universe.

Facets of Faith

Faith is like a diamond. It’s true beauty doesn’t come out until it is shaped by the diamond cutter. Tests and difficulties help shape a person’s faith and polish it’s facets so they can sparkle. The last few days have certainly polished my diamond.
