When Faith Is Not Enough

bernard franklin

When our prayers are not answered,

 

How much loss can we take

 

How much grief can we bear

 

How much pain can we cope with

 

Is our blind faith in Christ corroborated ,

Until we are judged by a higher power.

 

Ultimately to fail,

Through ecclesiastical injustice.

 

A belief found wanting

 

A need not met

 

A hope betrayed

 

Dear God,

 

Please forgive us when we falter.

    Yes, most of us feel that way at times, but I'm thankful that I can at bottom line, simply trust in His great mercy and love in spite of how I feel.
    Good stuff Bernard.
