Faith

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

Faith is the lantern

God gives us to guide our way

Creating light and direction that

Promises hope

And reminds us

That despair is only fleeting

That there always will be light

Faith is the beacon protecting us

In the inky darkness of fear and doubt

Guiding us through the storms

That thunder and roil around us

Faith is the lantern

God gives us to guide our way

-Julie O’Hara - 2023

If you enjoyed this poem, please consider tipping. As some of you may know, I am going through some rough times right now. I live in a motorhome and the car I was towing and was providing me income was stolen, so my income has been severely compromised. I've been looking for remote work, and have a few leads that look promising. So, every penny counts right now.

Alternatively, I have set up a registry on Amazon listing some items I need to get myself moving forward again. I also have my poetry books for sale at www.sacredsloth.net

Thank you.- Julie O'Hara 2023
