Faith Alone God came down in human form, as an infant snug and warm. Held within His mother's arms, faith kept Him from evil's harms. Joseph and Mary plodding on, traveling on faith alone. Warned by angels, a sudden flight, shielding Babe from Herod's might. Guided by the word of God, carefully, faithfully, they trod. Blessed burro the burden bore, when God asked he gave some more. Joseph trusting in the word, ignoring rumors that he heard. Filled with faith in day or dark, just as Noah and ancient ark. Faithful men though-out the ages, copying God's words on pages. The psalmist's poetic phrases, pleasing God with fervent praises. Farmers furrowing the fields, praying God increases yields. Just like these, many saints unknown, live their lives by faith alone.

Joyce: Lovely poem and it's such a wonderful story. Faith is surely the anchor of our lives. Betty Lou Hebert |

That huge cloud of witness' who have gone before sure makes our journey more joyous doesn't it? That blessed assurance that God's promises hold true thoughtout history and his grace that allows us to see it! Praise HIM forever and ever...thank you Joyce for this uplifting and soul gladdening piece! God Bless you! ((hug)) |
