Poem -
Doubting God
On doubting God
I am a pro
It seems my reflection
In mirrored holds
Cloaks self-doubting
And fears untold
Why is it so hardened holy
Or pure as blazoned gold
Not knowing God's Love
When truth's apparent
To every passing soul
That knowing God
In daily roles
Is more difficult
Than Central Casting
Where God Is Love
And the person acting
Cannot fool the Creator
For in His Love
There's truth to behold
And to Lie during prayer
Is merely the absence of faith
Where the pure of heart
Are judged on merit
And Not upon
The lies they've told
For God is truth
Everlasting
And Doubting God
Is the unmistakable path
Where true faith
Is found...

On doubting God I am "Proer" (If there is any word like that)...When you go through so much in life, one can't help but doubt if that God you hear and read about really exist...I hear other people's testimony and wonder if we're talking about the same God...Soemtimes I don't seem to understand His plan concerning my life and other times I feel Him so close and wrapped in His Love...Surely there is God and he is in Heaven!!....Enjoyed every word of this Tony...LOVE and ROCKETS!!

A long serving priest once said to me, "To not doubt your faith is a disservice to the Creator. Faith in God, science, fate, ourselves should be questioned to find the true path. If God wanted robots who follow blindly without free will, then that's who HE would have put on earth." I admire your ability to use beautiful words to express your spiritual doubts and quest. Great write Tony
Dear LOST!!.... thank you for sharing that story and for helping to keep the fires burning under me...... your generosity with words is inspiring and an honor to have grace my page...... stay well brother...... your cyber-friend and admirer.......T xo ?☀✴✳
My Dear Brother Poet Tony,
In the years of my existence, I have doubted God's relevance;
For my mind had e'er convinced me, that the Bible made no sense!
Written by men enamored, for a idol that was not real;
Science repudiated every sentence, my soul was turned to steel!
But lately I've relented, I have seen the Guiding Light;
I've bowed down in His glory, His wisdom in my sight!
My faith now is unquestioned, the path I choose is real;
It comes with God's approval, His Kingdom's mighty seal!
Peace and Love,
Larry xxx

My Dear Brother Tony,
My parents had only two children, myself and my sister. For my whole life, I hungered for a brother. Then, after just a little while on Cosmo, I knew that I had found one, my dear Tony. At last, my quest had ended.
Peace, Love and Rockets,
Larry xxx

Hi Tony, I enjoyed this I think people can lose and gain faith throughout their lives..being judged on what's in your heart not what you say is an interesting thought. Some people who have faith can commit atrocities yet still feel they will be saved...for me..It shouldn't matter what God you believe in or not ..if you were to be judged...your heart tells the truth.
love

Great poem Tony, although I'm not religious myself. I strongly believe with Lornas reply, religion or misinterpretation of religion can be the cause behind some of the worst atrocities. I'm with Lorna 'your heart tells the truth'
Love & rockets - Syd
Yay!!....thanx SYD!!.....always love to hear from you...... and I appreciate you sharing here my friend...... hope all is well brother!!....... LOVE and ROCKETS!!......T xo ?☀✴✳
Hey LORNA!!......thanx for this......I agree with you....... the truth only works one way...... and everyone internalizes and punishes themselves through their own belief systems..... unless of course they have no moral fiber at all.... anyway, it's always a pleasure my friend.......thanx again!!.......T xo ?☀✴✳
