A Walk Of Faith

A Walk Of Faith

Today as I walked along I had a doubt creep ever so shyly into my mind
About the nature of men and about my belief, my faith in the divine
I wondered why one man is raised to higher graces and another so neglected
Or why one can be so highly exalted and another so sorely afflicted
But then these words came to me.....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
All of this is beyond the power of human understanding, it cannot be any different
No amount of discussion or contemplation can possibly fathom divine judgment
Judgments are to be respected, while questions incite quarrels and useless controversies
Also, they promote pride and presumption and eventually preclude tenderness and mercy
------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is an infinite gap between the thoughts of an imperfect man and an enlightened one
Enlightenment is such a simple thing, it's heavenly revelation wherein His will be done
If anyone were to know which saint is the holier in the kingdom of heaven's glory
Such knowledge would do him no good unless he humbled himself then rose to tell the story
Of the wisdom that God has bestowed upon us through our faith and belief in his existence
And through actions show love of Him by loving others including those who show resistance
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, even though today
As I walked,
I doubted my faith in the divine
Still, He was there for me
For it was God
That brought these words to me
In the very first place
To help me
Ease my mind....

So much truth in all you have expressed here Tony- we all doubt, we all question, we all seek faith..and that's where we find the resiliance to carry on the walk we have started with God..to have faith in His decisions and belief in the tremendous fatherly love he has for usΒ  to only want what will ultimately be best for us...Not always easy, often troubling but never alone... great words as always Tony! inspired words
Hugs my man xxxx
