The Power of Faith

The power of faith will help you through,
at times in your life,your not sure what to do.

Faith is one thing that I do believe,
it has gotten me this far and helped me achieve.

I believe in faith,it means strong belief or trust,
even if I don't believe,I think sometimes I must.

          The power of faith is strong,
            all you have to do is ask.

                Colleen Marie Bono

Adhere to your own words Colleen. Yes, your words are very true and wise. Never lose your faith, that's what I promulgate. Faith can literally move mountains before your very eyes. Best Wishes Always, Bill

Reading such poems encourages to keep faith. I sometimes loose faith and ironikly it is at times when you should be keeping your faith! Thanks for sharing. Gareth

Yes believe..believe you were born to life for a purpose and you are NOT to die until that is accomplished. Believe the gift of life is precious, please accept the "job" of life! Death is no way out...if you have not done what you were sent to do you will simply be "turned around" and sent back to try again. KEEP WORKING ON YOUR LIFE, please. Light & Love

Faith in God is powerful and is available to us for the asking, like you said. But here is another thought. Faith in ourselves, with God's help can make us emotionally strong and in turn gives us the power to enjoy a happier life. You have said wise words. Faith will help a believer achieve ...with faith the size of a mustard seed...very tiny! God be with you. Smiles, Dane Ann
