Faith Falling Back'

As a Christian writer sometimes it's hard to find subjects,
Doing the Lord's work, inspirational thoughts, sometimes I just don't get.
Holy Spirit it seems, fails to talk to me at times for the visions.
What to write? It has it's moments, hard to make the final decisions.

So many subjects to choose from, so I decided it's to be about faith.
How it is given by God to those  as their souls cannot wait.
Faith is given by believing in the Trinity, given from God, Jesus,
Entering in you, God's life' given breath, Holy Spirit is in all of us.

Faith is believing that Jesus Christ was human, died, and resurrected in Spirit,
Knowing you can trust in Him, without any doubt, in life's hurtful moments.
He was conceived by the Virgin Mary, 2,000 years ago, before we were even born.
Through faith, we realize that he's alive, are we are not deserted or scorned.

Believing He died for our sins, and being resurrected,
Is what He plants in us, that a life through faith, our lives are corrected.
Jesus, God, Holy Spirit, will always be there for our blessings,
Because of our faith, we will always be remembered and not forgotten.

The three things that are important, love, wisdom and compassion,
Are given through faith, to each and every nation.
To love our Father and His wisdom, to obey His commandments, is His way,
And I pray for this understanding of our faith, each and every day.

What an inspiring and timely write as Easter approaches, Robert! Without faith in a Higher Power, we would suffer without love, wisdom and compassion in our lives. I like to think each man has the option to choose a better life and faith helps us find the right path. Countless times I have prayed for such guidance and your poem conveys your message so well. Wishing you a blessed Easter! Love, Carolyn
