Let these poems about beliefs encourage and uplift you in your faith in God. While there are times we may have doubts we should never have unbelief, just look around and ask where did all this come from, who created it?
Reflecting
on this question you may find answers in the poems.
Just to be tender, just to be true;
Just to be glad the whole day through;
Just to be merciful, just to be mild;
Just to be trustful as a child;
Just to be gentle and kind and sweet;
Just to be helpful with willing feet;
Just to be cheery when things go wrong;
Just to drive sadness away with a song,
Whether the hour is dark or bright;
Just to be loyal to God and right;
Just to believe that God knows best;
Just in his promise ever to rest;
Just to let love be our daily key:
This is God's will, for you and me.
Faith believeth the Word of God.
Unbelief questioneth the same.
Faith sees more in a promise of God to help, than all other things to hinder.
Unbelief, notwithstanding all of God's promises, sayeth how can these things be?
Faith will help the soul to wait, though God defers to give.
Unbelief will take snuff and throw up all, if God makes any tarry.
Faith will give comfort in the midst of fear.
Unbelief causeth fears in the midst of comfort.
Faith makes the greatest burdens light.
Unbelief makes light ones unbearable and intolerably heavy.
Faith brings us near to God.
Unbelief puts us from God, when we are near to Him.
Faith puts a man under grace.
Unbelief holdeth him under wrath.
Faith purifieth the heart.
Unbelief keepeth it polluted and impure.
You must believe in One who is Supreme,
You must believe in Everlasting Life,
You must believe that good is more than dream,
You must believe that peace will follow strife.
You must believe that all is for the best,
That blows that seem to hurt are meant to heal,
That unpremeditated good is blest,
Reward is made for stewardship and zeal.
For Faith is strength, and we are sore in need
Of strength to battle forward to the goal.
Belief unwavering is daily mead
That nourishes the shining, deathless Soul;
And Faith alone bestows the precious Sight
That can reveal the pathway up and Right.
