Truth Undeterred

Heaven and earth will pass away, 

but my words will not pass away.

Matt 24:35 

Dear, when in doubt

Don’t look about

And ask some passer for a thought

For age to age

From sacred page

The wise of this world

Have been taught

Though time may change

And rearrange

The things that meet the roving eye

Never God’s Word

Truth, undeterred

The Holy Bible

Does not lie

Pick up that Book

And take a look

Lest after all small races won

We miss The Way

The only Way

That leads to life

When life is done

Dear, when in doubt

Don’t look about

For answers from earth’s roaring crowd

Pick up The Book

And take a look

To find hope’s peace

From Holy God

This week, on more than one occasion I was confronted with remarks like 'if there is a God' and 'if there is a hereafter'! 

One cannot force faith. 

In the words of St. Thomas Aquinas...

“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. 

To one without faith, no explanation is possible.”

 …and asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in your knowledge of Him.

 I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints,  

and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe.

Ephes.1:17-19
