Why Do I Believe?
Why do I believe? What keeps faith alive?
Loss and grief, struggle and disappointment,
like rain on rock, they wear faith down.
I believe not because I am wise or strong. I am neither.
I believe because I have seen the God
who walks beside me.
There is no journey God has not taken.
No hope God has not shared.
I believe not what I have been told, but what I see.
A love that never departs.
A love that believes in me.
