Paradox of Faith and Humanity
By Mary Lorelie Vicedo
Reconciliation of thoughts and emotions
Refining goals, heart desires and destinations
Finding true satisfaction and realization of life
Creating a bigger vision and better version of self for God
All laid before me, all laid to let me choose
There are plenty of options, plenty possibilities and promises
Faith directs us to where we should go
Humanity distracts us on where we should go
Faith lifts me up to go higher and better
Humanity diverts action to curves and pauses
Yes, there are options and alternatives to life’s decision
But there is only one road to make it better
With faith, there is hope, promise and provision
With faith, there is direction, satisfaction and clarification
With faith, the weakness becomes strength and courage
Our sacrifices becomes miracles, possibilities beyond words and time
Humanity can distract and divert through sickness, pains and sorrow
Without faith the joy is superficial and temporary, it is blunt and limited
Without faith our weaknesses are dangerous and sinful.
We are in great need to transform ourselves through the Holy Spirit and faith
The journey of our life begins and ends with faith
It is the most amazing gift we could give to our family and ourselves
It is the most endearing remembrance to people we encounter each day
It is the most special commitment you will have in your entire life
Faith in God builds and protects
It drives our hearts to seek, to find, to succeed in knowing and loving God
It encourages our mind to speak, to ask and pray even harder to reach God
It believes in the impossible to become possible through the power of God
Faith is precious as each one of us. It is our key to connect to the Father
Faith knows we won, we are saved, and we are son and daughters of God
Through His sacrifices and Love we are destined to enter the Kingdom of Heaven
So embrace our faith, increase our hope and lead with love
Stand tall with confidence with the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit
Let our faith rise above our humanity and succeed as Disciples of Jesus on earth
Let our faith transform us to live and speak the truth and wisdom of God
And live each day with genuine love, hope and trust for the Glory of God, our Father. Amen.
