This is a nice acrostic. It expresses very nicely the message you want to convey in a convincing child's voice. How old is your granddaughter?

I am pleased to learn that your poem helped your granddaughter in presenting her talk. I admired your declaration of faith in rhyme. The picture you chose resonated with your work.

A very simple child-like look at faith....
Just knowing what you should do.....
Going down the right path....
Love: (heading towards where I know I can be)
That's what faith is all about... Good job! Bryan

This piece just oozes poetic parlance. I think you have done a damn good job of writing this free flowing verse. It has a very positive message in it poetic words of artistry. This was just a delight to have read and written a review for... John

This is very finely crafted. I like the acrostic of faith. The other problem I see is that the syllable count in your acrostic is varied, and uneven. Great job!!

    Thank you for your comments. I'll revisit the acrostic syllable count.

This is a great child's poem on faith and God. This is something even a young child could memorize and say as part of their prayers!
What wonderful gifts you have blessed your granddaughter with, first your own faith and Christian example, and now this writing.
Good luck in the contest.
Thank-you for sharing this with me.

I like this poem. They say the faith of a child is the strongest in the world. Great word choice and I like the structure of this poem
