Believe

everyone talks about this man, like he is their best friend. Being told to believe, for he will see. Hang on to his hand, He will guide you through his land. His stories are hard to believe. For someone who remains unseen. He won't push you past what you can't handle. All you need is believe in his power. I have tried to take his hand, I try to not stray from him. I tried to see what he was all about. When I need an extra hand he is not there. Yelling for his help! He is nowhere to be found. Why believe in this man. If he, does not believe in me?

cory faith is a lovely gift and your words express u want to believe and yet do not see action for your situatiion.. God moves in His time not ours and the more we believe the more He works and it is never when we want it..don't know why it works that way but He is in charge in my world and it has given me peace for many years.. continue to write and express ... your words will heal u and help u to believe in His Power ..luv always..

I do like to think God doesn't give us more strife than we can handle, Cory. Sometimes we do feel abandoned, but I think this is all in His plan for giving us spiritual growth and enlightenment. Very interesting poem concerning questions that accompany faith. Love, carolyn
