Fear, Faith


Fear runs, faith waits.
Fear hides, faith reveals.
Fear anesthetizes, faith feels.
Fear indoctrinates, faith educates.

Faith questions, fear assures.
Fear loses, faith finds.
Fear loosens, faith binds.
Fear escapes, faith endures.

  1. Just in case you're wondering, my mind wanted to keep Fear and Faith in the proper order on line 5, but my heart said, "In the deep places, Faith's questions are what anchor us when Fear's assurances turn out to be hollow." Hands follow heart, when words bubble up from the depths.
