Faith

What do you want me to write? I think I will write about faith What is faith? Is it something you can see can grab, can hang onto? Yes, yes, and yes You can see in someone though not visually, with your spirit eyes You can feel in someone though not spoken You can attach and reattach You can detach and be attacked Either way it works for you and not against you It lifts you out of the bound and sets you on a firmer ground It heals your senses, body, and anything it touches It removes doubt, fear, oppression, and things not called for It calls into being what is not spoken It determines our fate through words that are spoken It affirms our senses, values, ownership through its grandeur It moves mountains, blockage, obstruction It brings one to one's knees in a moment of desperation, brokenness It catapults one to one's spiritual height It remains with one through one's deepest sorrows What can it do? It can do a lot Whatever one wants it to do, it will do Because He will do Because faith is God And God is faith Can't separate one from another God meant for us to have faith And have faith plenty Have faith in everything Because "faith is the assurance of things hoped for the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11-1) "And without faith, it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6) "For we walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7) Because we need to "fight the good fight of faith" (1 Timothy 6:12) Because faith is a gift
