What is faith?

CATEGORY

life

Views: 134

According to Hebrews 11:1, its the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen

What is the scripture talking about, what does it really mean?

In a modern world, the how’s and why’s of everything that we take for granted 

Ideas in mustard seeds, so long ago, sowed and then planted 

Assure us that God’s absence is completely fiction

As well as mankind’s interpretations, manipulations, and depictions

Evil is a the manifestation of free will without faith

So our creation was random, just a inexplicable evolution from an ape?

I’ve climbed Mt Fuji in Japan

Rode an Elephant in the rain forests of Thailand

Held a baby Kangaroo, at a zoo, in Australia 

Piloted a Navy warship through the Panama Canal, four times, let me tell ya!

Each trip took a whole 24 hours to complete

Walking through Dubai’s Gold Souks, eating Shawarmas in crowded middle Eastern streets 

Ate kimchi in South Korea, Painted a school in Ecuador 

I’ve sailed on every ocean, visited nearly every shore

As a teenager, I explored Iceland’s capital city of Reykjavík

I didn’t stay long, because I had to report for duty, back on the ship

I’m sharing my life and travels, not to brag, but rather to explain

To both atheists and the righteous, who constantly debate and complain

From myopic views, both to stubborn or scared to ever choose

To wander, explore, and walk in somebody else’s shoes

My years of travel have shaped my global, spiritual, and cultural perspective

Breaking bread in distance lands, completely ignorant of the menu choices that I selected

I’ve seen seas so calm, you’d think the water was made of glass!

And waves to turbulent, you’d try to standup, but just keep falling back down on your a$$!

The sea, like our creator, simultaneously peaceful and dangerously violent

So loud at times, deafening, but mostly completely silent.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful "simplicity" of the beginning "allegorical" beginning. Where there is faith, there is always hope; and where there is hope, faith will always bring reality. Indeed, "...if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think..." Thanks for the share, Nosajm. In faith and hope, Peace and Love.
