Faith
Faith is like having one foot  standing on the ground you can see,
as the other one is lost in a land that when believed.. sets you free.
People speak and say all of the time that their lives are confused,
not  knowing that if they take a step  in Faith they can be rescued.

Is there any way to get out of the bondage of life's everyday stress,
or can we continue onward in a journey that seems to us a mess?
People say that we could all be part of the creators grand ol' plan,
yet as I watch ...... people are lost in the mire of their quicksand.

They say seeing is believing and that is life's  true bonafide test,
when actually its the opposite  when we trust and enter God's rest.
Trusting means believing when there is nothing within your view,
that is telling you he has heard  and  that his promises are true.

He tells to believe and call into existance the things presently not,
no matter our circumstances or  if our rescources are totally shot.
After all he is the Alpha.......Omega and creator of  all things,
so we should remember that he is our  true scource and means.

He speaks of our works and how they can just be a clanging bell,
when the things we do lack love and.... are selfserving as well.
That means that we need to use faith while walking in  real Love,
in order to truly receive  his many blessings waiting from above.

He speaks of a banquet table set up for all of those that  believe,
yet all to often we do not realize that it takes all ours to receive.
We see others that  freely come and obtain that banquets best,
not knowing our problem is we dont take our place like the rest.

Its a banquet of life .... offered to all that would choose to believe,
yet that one single step of blind faith... is what it takes to receive!
So now there is a choice as to whether walk around the table,
or  decide in your heart to reach out in faith to the one who is able.
