Faith

Faith I came to God the long way round in choices that I’ve made. I heard His voice throughout the years; whispers in my ear. She did not scold nor reprimand shout brimstone — bellow hell. Instead He laid his gentle love one seed of thought to sprinkle on in moments when in doubt. As I grew old, I thought I knew but still I searched for more. She waited there with open arms and never judged me wrong. His rules are written in my heart were placed with tender love by mother — father guiding me to find my purpose here. Her whispers kept on calling me so many years have gone. I know the map I journey on with God I walk in peace. His rules are simple; She cursed me not: Don’t hurt another being. He gave me Will I chose to do Her bidding here on earth. His love is not confined within, in words writ long ago. Her wisdom is in everything my will is to chose right. I push you not to bend to me, you’re free and here to chose. He’ll guide you if you listen to, Her voice is in your heart.
