My faith stands firm

A chapter in the book Heart Crafted Poems -2021

Then and Now

by JLR

Within this crowd there is much grumbling. I find myself stunned, this event humbling! While standing in the crowd feelings pangs of sorrow, I bowed. These complainers chiding that man. I wonder, when all this vitriol began. ****************************** Light, so bright, the firmament glowed. The sight of light from above flowed. Like the mighty oceans that span the seven seas His plea, Father forgive them ... weakened my knees, ********************************** The light of a new morn being born, shines over yonder hill, that is wind worn. The trees stretch into this new day's light. As I knell at this cross reminded of His plight. ************************************ Certainly, I can go about mumbling, stumbling, tumbling, but I will not! My faith prevents this Self showing. My Savior still shines His Light, no more self pummeling! He raised me off my knees, heard my pleas, His Knowing. ******************************************* 'Twas then the sun crested, shining so bright on my life. Now I am about praying and celebrate the gift He bestowed. Not one thing can cause me that prior strife ... I'm a travelin' a different road!
