I do not live,
an exciting life,
but through it all,
I keep the faith.
Growing up with friends,
who loved money, drugs, power,
and everything,
that came with it,
I always put Christ first.
When I helped create,
my own record company,
as a teen,
I always believed,
in the Gospel.
After a long hectic week,
I always looked forward,
to going to church.
When people I knew,
died at such an early age,
I never wavered in my strength.
When my brother went,
to prison twice,
I always believed the word.
When I moved to,
a different state,
I took the Lord with me.
When I entered into,
what I call a 'tainted marriage',
I prayed without ceasing.
When my marriage ended,
I prayed without ceasing.
I then rededicated,
my life to the Lord.
When I moved back to Florida,
I put aside my childish ways.
Years passed since then.
Things have been,
slow but steady.
I am far from perfect,
but I try my best,
to live for Christ.
... and I know that when I die,
I will be able to say,
that I have fought the good fight,
I have kept the faith.

Always keep your faith ,
This poem to me presents the idea of faith and belief being important in a person's life. In this case Christ and God. Nicely written
A nicely composed declaration of how important their faith and belief is in their life's, nicely expressed and written
