THERE ARE

There are
certain things
I cannot have

Yet
Faith
is one thing
I can hold

There
are times
when
I am faced
with myself

all I see
is my own self

There
are times
when
life has
held me up

I wonder
why
I did not fall

There
are times
when
I think
I can't go on

Yet
there
is someone
there
to push me on

There
are times
when I feel I can

others seem
to hold me back

There
are times
when
I am by myself

Yet
I wonder
who is
watching me

There
are times
that I will
feel it all

not think
there
won't be more

There
are times
that I will
never know

Nor
see it pass
in front of me

There
are times
that will
try my best

all I can do
is not let go

There
are times
when
I am praying

Yet
I know
He is listening
to me

There
are times

Yet
I am here
to face them all

Knowing
Faith
will let me see it all.

A THOUGHT!

The only time
that is hard to face
Is when
I am face to face

The only time
that I will see
Is when
I am looking
not at myself

The only time
that I will see
Is when
I am looking
through my heart

The only time
I will see it all
Is when God
is there
to show me all.

A Poeatreeman

What is important
is that I find God

What is the question

If you have to ask
know you both are here

The answer
is not important

For
who is wise
that can answer

Faith
it believes
without question.
