FAITHFULNESS IN BELIEF

In church now and
I hear prayers and echoes
of prayers being said.

I am of the belief that
these prayers will be heard
by the One Who taught
us how to pray

Even as many have doubts
because they have prayed before
and it seems that because they
apparently were not answered
in the expected way that 
they were not heard

The answers to prayer are 
not always obvious and we
miss it at the time or 
other things happen which
take us in the direction
we were praying for

Would this not be an answer?
Sometimes we are held back 
and feel disappointed but later 
recognize this as a gift because 
we were left exposed to opportunities 
we never fathomed which take us 
way beyond what we once wished for

Faith is a beautiful thing
To have it is a gift and luxury
Praise be to God on this 
beautiful June day and always
