SURROUNDED BY FAITH

Surrounded by Faith 
this heart of mine 
is seated at the soul 
of the one 
who created me. 
***
Saving Grace 
is what He gave us 
the day his was born 
in a lowly stable. 
***
Mercy is what 
he showed us 
when he died 
on the cross that day. 
***
I'd be smart to 
remember whom 
I am living for. 
***
For He is the one
who will gather me
like a seed in the wind,  
On that final day  
when I am ready to surrender.

Oh my, this is a purely heartfelt and serene poem, hued with soulful hues of spirituality, dear Rose.. I can relate with the tranquilizing aura of these words, as faith and hope are the only coruscating shimmers of guidance that help us to rise like a Phoenix, from the darkness.. This is such a gorgeous poem and you've truly depicted the divinity and its subliminal essence in a very profound way.. Absolutely loved reading this.. Sending so much light and best wishes your way ~ :)

Worry ends when faith begins so to be surrounded by faith can only be a good thing..

I totally agree with you S, we sleep safely without a worry when we entrust our lives to him, no matter what our earthly father was like, our heavenly Father never falls, short, :)
