Purpose

Purpose

Trusted many around me in my youth!
Sadly; some broke that trust; and would lie!
Then all I wanted to know; was truth!
Inquired to those that broke that trust, so why?!

Later; found the testimony of Ruth,
Scriptures; leading me in solemn quest!
To discover the whole ultimate truth!
Help my spirit find comfort and rest.

Abraham; type, shadow of The Father!
Isaac, a type and shadow of The Son!
Jacob; shadow of The Comforter!
The Three, symbols of purpose in one!

Coveting now with Them, I trust!
Sharing my witness of Them, I must!

Nice write. From my experience putting faith in humanity is a fool’s errand.

Hello Jim and Merry Christmas to you and all your family also.
For family comes first.
Another well written sonnet that rhythmically beats like a heartbeat like all good sonnets should and your message never lost on me and dare say, many more through life's learning curve and its tribulations.
Tribulations to learn from and then move forward with experience's gleamed.
And then become perhaps wise enough, to steer one's own path putting faith and guarded trust in whatever solace and safe harbour that comforts and nourishes one's God given soul.
A superb write my friend and Jim you never disappoint in whatever theme you choose and to make a reader most certainly pause and think over your soul searching prose.
Thanking your good self most kindly my poetry brother.
