My Journey to God

Restoring Foundations

God tests, but never tempts.
Faith is above all strength.

There is peace in prayer,
Peace in disburdening,
Peace in assimilating,
And joy in purpose.
Never have fear—
for He is always there.

There is hope in every inspiration,
Hope in every progression,
Hope in every moment we allow.
A glow is enkindled in our souls.
Never dispossess—
for He is always there.

There is light in all delusions,
Light in the average,
Light in the being without,
Refuge in His devotion.
Never disregard—
for He is always there.

God tests, but never tempts.
Mercy is above all grace.
