Faith

Faith Reality will mirror the truth unseen. Can we be washed in blood and still be clean? How does the grass and all of the trees grow? Does our life have true meaning, how does one know? Think of the stars that fill our up our night sky. How did they all get there and why? Why must the young always grow old? Can we follow our heart with all that we’re told? Can we ask the right question, even though we are blind? Could these answers be hidden for us one day to find? Why do we work, love, laugh and cry? What makes us seek knowledge, when one day we’ll die? Who gave us life, dance, rhyme and song? Is there a God? Who’s right and who’s wrong? What’s your belief, how did it all begin? Did God send his son to die for man’s sin? We will never make sense of no beginning or end. The answer is clear, its faith, my dear friend! 10-19-2021 Mark Koplin

I have no faith, I admit it, which is ironic for some one who studied religion. I am not a fan of religion per se, but I chose to see things in this way, there are good people, and however they wish to be good and do good is fine by me, I have no answers only questions and respect all views on this. Jenna's comment is one I get, I fear my death bed for that very reason. Great poem!

Faith is a very hard thing to find. It’s there for all of us in one form or another. You just have to open your heart and your mind to all possibilities

Faith…. I am sorry for those who have none for what have they to seek? A life expanse that ends in death, but God has a better plan. I like your perspective, Mark.

Imagine lying on your death bed all alone thinking that there is nothing after death. How horrible that would be. Thank you so much Jenna!

Hello Mark, Is there a god? Yes there is a god. Does he performs miracles? Yes he does. Some where in Canada a little boy was missing for 2 days, He was found to keep alive he found water and drank it. Miracles do happen. That little boy has faith. blessings my friend.
