When trials and threats to life weaken our faith, the Devil feels he's winning. As your vividly descriptive, inspirational poem says, we can't let him win. I can't imagine how you feel. I pray your son will recover.

Thanks so much for your review, support and prayers.
My son is till going through, but he is a lot better than he was. I give all praise to God, for I know this attack comes from Satan.
Blessings...Portia

My Faith In God
Hello my friend
Nice religious poem about your faith and prayer for nonvictims of covid19. I think that if you're going to pray it would be nice if you include the victims of covid19. I'm so afraid of getting it. Good job.

Comment from Ronni
Thank you for sharing your most Faith filled and reemphsized truth
that it outcomes truly rely on one's own abiding and unswerving
Faith and trust in Him; especially in times like this horrendous
Cov-19 pandemic. Truly, evil is the harbinger of such maladies
and tragedies that plague mankind, so often verified and predated
in Bible in forwarnings and consequences. You site two Biblical
verses most reliable and realistic to enfold within our Faith and
belief, and assurance where and from Whom our survivorship
will come from.
I enjoin you in your prayers for your deal son in this tragedy,
as you kindly pray for all others too. God bless you and your son!
A most deeply touching and awakening MY Faith contest entry.
Best of luck! Thanks for sharing so compassionately!
Best wishes, Ronni

First of all, prayers for your son - and I pray for his healing. Thanks for the good poem that shows where our hope comes from - Who we can trust and have confidence in.
He is risen....

Comment from pome lover
You have a very admirable attitude and sustaining faith.
I do think the devil had a little help from the gov't which covered up their own scientists' warning and let the virus spread to us and other countries.
I hope your son recovers and you stay safe and well.

Yvette,
Thank you kindly for your review and comments, the him is my son, I have changed it to reflect "my son." I had my reason since God knew who I was referring. When I pray, I always call out my son's name and I didn't want to put his name because of the blind entry
Blessings my friend...
Comment from Gert sherwood
Your poem has a lot to say especially when you wrote
I have faced many difficult and testing times in my life,
and have always placed my trust in God, this I will continue to do.

I find it difficult someone would give only 4 stars on this. It is clearly from your heart, clearly free verse, relevant to this time we are going through and I personally love the Bible verse you chose from Psalms as it is one of my favorites! Great job with this!

Comment from Selyob
Beautiful color choice. Beautiful art selection. As a fellow believer, I truly feel the same about what you have expressed in this work. And, I wanted to give it the five stars, but I couldn't for the following reasons.
I could fine no rhythm, or rhyme. Poetry requires one or both of these. That is what distinguishes poetry from prose. Simply breaking paragraphs into individual lines does not make it poetic. For these reasons, I could not give it the stars it otherwise deserves.
Again, I truly appreciate the message, and the direction you are going here, and would like to see a revision which flows smoothly, and has a more poetic nature. Please let me know if you rework it, as I would love to revisit it and increase it to the five stars when it is perfected.

I thank you for your review and very kind comments. But if you will look near the title of this poem I have indicated this is a "free verse." A free verse does not require any set rhyme, rhythm, syllable count nor meter.
In a free verse, one is free to express it in any form or style, that does not require rhymes or rhythm.
I pray that you reconsider your rating. Stay safe and well, have a blessed and wonderful day.
