Belief Is Power

A Poem of Faith

By Earl W. PearlPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

There’s always a limit to what you can do

A limit to how much you grow

That limit is often dependent on you

Since YOU reap the efforts you sow

It’s tragic how easy it is to give up

Stop filling that cup of despair

Avoid all the people who add to that cup

Embrace only people who care

See, “doubt” is a canyon that starts as a crack

There’s power in what you believe

And doubt is the barrier holding you back

It limits what you can achieve

So THIS is the moment, THIS is the hour

“Impossible” rarely applies

If YOU can imagine, YOU have the power

Today, the “impossible” dies

Whenever a person believes they cannot

Another’s believing, “I might”

If facing a challenge remember this thought

It’s likely they BOTH will be right
