In the Light of Dark Comings
Faith is only troublesome when
You lose it in the very thing that
Was supposed to create more of it
Here, shame manifests itself in Doubt,
developing a disappointment You Feel
toward yourself for a simple failed trial
The money is gone with no way to pay
I pray for more time on the clock
But hard times are clearly inevitable
I'm ready for the test this time
But fear comes with it for the
Universe usually see this as a dare
The fear in having my faith tested
Comes from the gathered evidence
Of my always giving up early
My strength is my constant effort
To produce more faith
In the light of dark comings.
I am not hoping in results but in the
Certainty that I will become what
God intends regardless of circumstances
Change comes to me now as I
Go to God for the connection
That creates better
I am gaining focus as I follow
In Gods direction to growth
In sight of the trap of the circle
I am spiraling upwards as I write
The truth that I death grip as
I ascend towards improvement
I am protecting my faith through the
Gratitude I feel for all the things
That challenge and have challenged me
So I am working assured, knowing
This time I trust in confidence
Even though I have nothing to show for it
