If we would have the faith to plant the seeds of love into other's hearts and let God do the rest. What a wonderfully written poem.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

I like the subject of faith and God. AABB rhyming which lends itself to an intellectual stance. Beautifully written works.

    Thank you for taking the time to review my poem and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Your comment reminds me of the verse, "Without faith, it's impossible to please God" (Heb.11:6).

Well done. This sure lays it out poignantly and clearly. Faith is the key to Christianity and without it, you have nothing.

Knowing that, still does not make it any easier. The struggle is real!

Thanks for sharing. This is wonderful!

    Thank you so much for your review. We were never promised an easy voyage--just a safe harbour, but faith certainly makes the journey easier, as you say, without it, you have nothing. Now is the time to build and exercise that faith by getting strong in the Word.

You have a smooth poetic flow of words and lines that speak to the reader."The light that shines from God up above is simply faith mingles with his love", are two lines that are beautifully written and give a good explanation of how faith is love. Excellent poem here.

This spiritual poem, The Strength of Faith, presented with eight AABB-rhymed quatrains, reminds the readers that power and comfort are available to those who keep God in their sights and positivity as the guide.

That's a great poem! I really like the message you tried to give here. We modern people are very weak in our faith. My fav part is,
Faith is not something that's bought or sold.
It's the driving force that makes you bold.
To possess it you must in God believe,
Rejecting the voices that lie and deceive.

The poem truly spoke to me as the challenges around tend to deem the faith. yet, right at the corner of my soul, I am reminded not to loose faith and the powers it conveys. Thanks for sharing your uplifting inspirations. Well done, dear GUDBJORG. Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you very much for your rating. Your review is very encouraging, too. It does take work to build faith, that's for sure. It's not a sudden boom--it grows by hearing the Word of God.
