Faith Erupts
By Ken L Birks
Sometimes,
when coming to You, it’s in a fog of
unbelief.
Without condemnation, You’re always
there to give relief.
As
trust is put in You, faith washes over
our spirits, unstopped
We’re
reminded of Your greatness as thoughts
are focused.
As
Your love washes over our beleaguered
souls, faith erupts.
When the
circumstances of life pull down,
unbelief corrupts.
Looking downward, we’re blinded to all
that You’ve promised.
Like
the mountains in the distance, Your
promises interrupt.
Focusing on them, eyes are drawn from
the mole hills of unbelief.
As we
lift our eyes to all that You’ve
promised, faith erupts.
When situations conflict with the God’s
Word, unbelief settles in.
Confusion comes with misunderstanding of
all that is perceived.
Thoughts brought into alignment with the
Word, birth peace within.
In
humility, we admit perceptions wrong as
His Word is true, indeed.
As
trust in the purity of the Word is
placed, faith once again erupts.
At times, no
matter where we turn, there’s no sense
of His presence.
While
unbelief tempts, darkness grips the soul
as visibility ceases.
Faith
says, “Keep walking, holding the steps
of His way, laying hold.”
As the
light at the end of the tunnel shines,
we come forth as gold.
Having
treasured His Words more than necessary
food, faith erupts.
Caught up
with vision and purpose, our eyes are
opened wide.
Without vision, we cast off restraint as
unbelief corrupts the heart.
Seeing
and hearing in the spirit, we walk by
faith, side by side.
Faith
leads us to unknown conquests as we
cease to lose heart.
As we
speak and communicate all that we
perceive, faith erupts.

way, this practical guidebook will help shine the light on the
invisible path that not only leads to God’s goodness and
experiencing His kingdom within, but also to the greatest
adventure of your life.
