Journey of Faith

Traveling the world, looking for a reason

A reason to go, a reason to stay

People aren’t who they say they are

Definitely not who they claim to be

Here I am wandering, wondering what to do

Then I here, in the distance, You

Amen, amen You say

Let it be done

Your will, not mine, set in motion

Apprehended by the human conscious 

Perpetrated by human act

Claims of one fascinate another

Now they strive for achievements beyond their reach

Defined not by pride I move in faith

I see in faith

I hear in faith

I choose to act in faith

Rallies convene attempting to turn me toward pride

Pride the ride of human banter

Pride the prize of hope resting in the conscious 

For that which is contrived by the mind

Knows not love

Knows not hope

Knows not the Father and His promises

And so the world world crippled under its own demise

Thinks is knows yet it knows not for it is vested in pride, not wisdom

I need to look past that which debilitates my faith movements

Reason need not be my extension

Life be my purpose, life with the Father my motivation

Those whom I meet, strangers, some will become friends

Others family

Still others will remain strangers, never truthful welcomed into their heart

Purposed to love I need to see with my heart, the true beauty of this world

It is not that which is tangible

Not that which is seen with naked eye

But that which is known via wisdom

The presence of the Father

His holy touch

His compassionate kiss

I once thought my options within this world are limited

Yet I was wrong

Faith options are limitless for faith explores the known formerly thought of as the unknown

Explorations beyond the reach of human experience motivate action

Action beyond skill, beyond repetition, beyond human preparation 

That who we are has a chance to reconcile with who we claim to be

Faith the reconciler

Hope the motivater

Love the expression

Travel the world I must yet not for reason but rather for purpose

The Father has set in motion a purpose greater than wonder

And though I may wander I am never lost

With my head held high, I see that which the heart knows

Every path, lit by faith

Every step take in hope

Every declaration may in love

I need not be caught up in wonder, in reason, in deciphering human deception from the Father’s reality

Knowledge of the heart needs no brooding

Knowledge of the heart clearly sees, clearly understands its navigational pull

Clearing the mind that the heart my breath, this my my chance to live

Silencing the mind not an easy task

Yet a necessary task

For I am purposed to love 

Love without condition, Love without reason

An impossibility for one trapped by the mind

Here I am ready to serve

Ready to move

Ready to love

My first and only hiccup, my mind

As it claims pride

I claim love

My journey, my choice

I choose the Father

I choose love

I choose to live my purpose

I will be lead by faith

Seeing hoping under every rock

Offering love to every stranger

A journey of faith, my journey of faith begins now...
