Inspired by Bible verses Proverbs 3:5-6; The Epistle of James; Hebrews 11.. and with so many experiences I have in my life that indeed God is so faithful......... when no one else there, HE is always there.... Forever be grateful to You, Father God....

FAITH IS A POWERFUL THING Faceless fears. Trials. they seize and drain whence one let them sink . . . Across our path are stormy hills and mountains that blocks. Interest should kindle one to stand as one must avoid being buried alive to sharp nails. Always wanting to escape, an angel's arm herald as a saviour, possibly to render an ounce of relief. . . Inked and embedded in my life are lots of struggles. Some moments then, I almost gone to losing my battle and sanity as even the persons I am holding onto seems to be blind and deaf. Persecuted without even some questions on hows and whys. Only I heard are nightmare words that seems even 'til now when they fly by to my remembrance, tears do flood eating my thoughts and freezing every muscle fiber, I have. Reasons I recall, some I understand but some I don't. Fueling me to search for something I need to hold onto. Unheard and Unseen but I so believe in one God above all Locking my thoughts as my life's key to His breathing words Trusting Him with my mind, my heart, my soul and my strength. I, Huntress not anymore of finding answers but rather in again redeeming myself to survive and handing all to Him. Nothing compares to His starlit immediate response to my prayers guaranteeing me firstfruit hope and the best blessings! _________________________ © 02:21 pm. January 09, 2015

The title says it all Olive_eloi. Some things are easy to understand and believe in...others are not. Obstacles hinder our progress, yet it is faith that clears the way for us. Prayers are the key that opens the gate to happiness. hugs // paul
