I am glad you are resolute and do not fear death. Your short-form is quite thought-provoking and is reinforced by the vivid, parallel artwork. Warm regards- Joan

This is a good challenge to draw the dedicated reader in to contemplate this question. It would be an enlightening discussion between people of deep weathered faith and those just beginning their journey. Well, thought out.

    Thank you very much for your kind review of my work. I'm so glad you enjoyed this faith based poem. Hi have to say my faith has been tested at the beginning, middle, and at the end. I am definitely one of weathered faith. The Bible says this produces character and strength.

Have I ever read anything of yours that is not six star material? I know. I know. Sometimes I do not have six to offer as a couple, and I do mean ONLY a couple other writers get them, but you are my girl. This piece is so profound, so very, very wonderful and strong. GREAT JOB!
Wendy

Hugs to you!

I wish everyone had the faith you have. The world would be a better place. This is a lovely poem. You managed to get strong faith and emotion into 5 Lines. Best of luck in the contest.

AMEN Sis this was a great little poem. I wish you well. Loved the artwork and no spags. One of my favourite hymns is "I am resolved no longer to linger
charmed by the world's delight.
Things that are higher, things that are nobler,
These have allured my sight.

Chorus

I will hasten to Him
Hasten so glad and free
Jesus, greatest highest,
I will cling to Thee.


See if I can find it and give you the link to the old Church web site where it is. I sem to remember you are on PC so the music should work.

    Hymn, I Am Resolved by Palmer Hartsough. I was a Baptist Sunday School teacher for two decades. I know all the good hymns, too. So glad you enjoyed this one. Sending you my best today as always,

Such a beautiful offering of faith as well as testimony, Lady Sal -- love the strength of character and of belief that you convey with your contest offering... just beautiful!! :) :) I would only suggest the following alteration:

answer is--no --> answer is... no

Of course, please feel free to completely ignore as it really is a 'sound' of change and not of your words.. ;) :) Thanx for such a beautiful feeling of 'right' today! :) Yvette

I think it's easy to want to give up when times get tough, but you reminded us there is something so much bigger and we just have to hold on. Great job with this.

"Where Faith Rests", is short,succinct and very much to the point. With a minimum of words, this talented poet has told it how it is. To me, this is definitely a six. I look forward to seeing my next post.
