Touch Of Faith

Posted on May 28, 2013 by Raivenne

They’ve always said the answers will come for all I’ve pled
They’ve always said that all I’ve hungered for will be fed
That all I have to do is reach out and believe
But I laughed them off feeling greatly misled

They’ve always said I’d never be alone, faith would be my homestead
They’ve always said I would feel alive after years of feeling dead
So I opened my heart and touched a sleeve
Now I believe the things they’ve always said

sometimes it takes our own experience of faith in order for us to see and understnd…that is a wonderful story as well…the woman with the blood issue is the one that came to mind…

I like the turn in the second stanza ~ Faith must be experienced, touched “our sleeve” so we will believe ~
