Faith Is . . .

Faith Is . . . ( Contest / Faith by Sean E Bruce)

“Faith is the assured expectation of what is hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities that are not seen.” Heb. 11:1.

*

A father unknown.
No faith is shown.

Until
Actions performed… Noticed.
Then faith is grown.

*

“His (God’s) invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world’s creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship.”—Romans 1:20.

*

A breeze. A blaze. A smile. A hand.

A study of ‘God’s Word’
For Wisdom to expand.

Then faith will grow from a ‘mustard seed’
to help one attain: Sweet Eternity!

*

Rays of sun through my windows stream.
When clouds perform, my vision’s screened.

I search, as for treasures, for things
before
heard or gleened

to envision this future that is still unseen.

*

So faith follows the thing heard.
In turn,
what is heard is through the word about Christ.”
Romans 10:17.

*

“From the power of the Grave
I will redeem them;

From death I will recover them.

Where are your stings, O Death?
Where is your destructiveness, O Grave?

Hosea 13:14.

“He will swallow up death forever,

And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.

The reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth,

For Jehovah himself has spoken it.
Isa. 25:8.

““Your dead will live.

My corpses will rise up.

Awake and shout joyfully,
You residents in the dust!

For your dew is as the dew of the morning,

And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life.”
Isa. 26:19.

*

“And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more,
neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.

The former things have passed away.”

And the One seated on the throne said:
“Look! I am making all things new.”
Also he says:
“Write, for these words are faithful and true.”
Rev. 21:4, 5.
