What a wonderfully crafted poem my friend, it's a really good look at your mother's faith, which was really worth looking at in the light of your growing spiritual experience, but really on needs their own experience, which, of course you had. And the parent's faith will sanctify the family, lU

Thank you Roy. I appreciate you saying it is a well crafted poem. My mother was a woman of strong faith and so was my husband a man of strong faith. I'm thankful I had the two of them in my life. God knew I'd need some extra people praying for me.

Very fortunate
Comment from Tom Horonzy
Every talent we have whether sight, sound, touch or feel is a gift of God. Others would be our testimony of the One and Only Jesus Christ, trusting in the Holy Spirit, believing in miracles that we can be healed, or even participating in healing another but these gifts need to be hones and refined which can take a lifetime of diligent effort and practice including prayer, scripture study, keeping covenants and obeying the commandments. Well done.

I do so admire you Ulla. When things don't necessarily match your own thoughts, you are still so gracious and accomidating. I would never try to change your way of thinking and I appreciate you extending the courtesy to mine.

Comment from zanya
This poem dealing with Faith explores the reality of Faith, firstly in our home environment and ultimately in our own hearts where we must struggle with our own demons, so to speak, in order to reach our own truth - well told

Thank you Zanya. I pleased that you found some worthwhile in this poem. No matter how strong the faith of others might be, the strenth of you own faith is what matters. It took me a while to realize that. I really appreciate the six stars.

Comment from Ben Colder
We are all given a measure of faith, but do we cultivate it? It remains to be seen. I have a pet saying. It does not take less faith to think God will not when HE WILL. Three things that will move God's hands. Fasting, prayer, giving. It will make things happen. Good one, Beth.

Thank you so much for the nice review. Yes thing happen when our faith is strong. The Bible says some things only happen with fasting and prayer. I don't understand how that works but I have to know that it does. I really appreciate the six stars.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I grew up in a Christian family that attended church constantly and as I grew just figured I had this covered. Nope, It hit me hard that I needed to find my own relationship with God. I did. I couldn't find any way to make this entry any better. Good luck with the contest.
