a force of creation

unseen but knowing

Air for us to breathe

given to us by God

Trusting in that promise

Like gravity

our faith like gravity

we can see neither

yet we know we are bound to the ground

and we are loved by our Maker

we have faith not blindly

we have faith regardless

sure God will provide

God will guard us in our trials

able to stand
