This Too Shall Pass
by Helen Steiner Rice

If I can endure for this minute
Whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is
Or how dark the moment may be-

If I can remain calm and quiet
With all the world crashing about me,
Secure in the knowledge God loves me
When everyone else seems to doubt me-

If I can but keep on believing
What I know in my heart to be true,
That darkness will fade with the morning
And that this will pass away, too-

Then nothing in life can defeat me
For as long as this knowledge remains
I can suffer whatever is happening
For I know God will break all of the chains
That are binding me tight in the darkness
And trying to fill me with fear-
For there is no night without dawning
And I know that my morning is near...

What a beautiful poem! Words of so much hope and encouragement. Words of Truth! Thank you Father that you are with us every step of the way you will never leave us or forsake us. We might feel cast down at times but we are not destroyed! Morning is near! God bless you Kaye.. Tamela

"We are living images of a living God. Then dead to self, raised with Him (Now, listen, listen to this.), His Word made flesh again in us. (O Brother Neville...) Look. What is it? Not the mythical, imaginary god setting out there, but the living God... What is the living God? The Word in you making Itself real. Whew. Glory to God. Oh, I know you think I'm a holy-roller. Maybe I am. But, oh, brother, do you see it? Triumph over every denomination, triumph over all paganism, a living God made manifest in a living temple. And the Word of God, which is God, is made flesh in you. Why? You're seated in Heavenly places, triumphed over all things in Christ Jesus." ~William Branham.

This blog is a journal about my walk with Christ. I decided to share my journey through blogging so others can see & know that God is not a figment of our imagination nor a product of any man-made philosophy but that He is real and is saving people in the here and now.
Pure Faith is not a platform for me, I am a simple believer...but I have a heavy burden for those who have not met Christ yet, my intent is for Christ to shine & be glorified through my life experiences which I wear proudly on my sleeve. It is also a joy for me to share testimonies from other people as we are living and walking evidences of God's work.
I share my personal reflections not to preach- but to witness to others (as I would if we are face to face), with the aim of encouraging and pointing the way to Jesus, who is the author and finisher of our faith. Amen. May you be blessed richly.

Photos that I use are mostly from Google images, deviantart.com, and Photobucket. Videos from Youtube and music from Mixpod. The template that I use is from Falcon Hive although I did tweak it to personalize and blog badges courtesy of shabbyblogs. I aim to keep this blog ad-free with the exception of the book widget, as I think it is good to point readers where to purchase the recommended reads. Many thanks to my resources :)
