Faith or Frustration

Life can be joyful or life can be an unhappy experience. Most often it is what you make it.


Poem Artwork

Is it not amazing?  Both words start with the letter ‘F’

However, this has to be the only thing these words share in common

Faith, you see is a word for trust, assurance and conviction

While frustration is used to describe doubt, disappointment and dissatisfaction

Faithfulness is a word for loyalty, devotion and assurance

While to be frustrated is a show of irritation and annoyance

Faith can overcome the fear of living and make one feel secure

It gives one the confidence to live each day and deal with whatever life has in store

I ask you, my friend which life would you rather it be that you live?

Would it be a life with wonders to encounter and great joys to give?

As for me, I will accept life as a challenge, living in faith, hope and love

Following the way of Jesus and our Heavenly Father above

As usual, your verses put forth a testimonial of faith and living, Lew. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

Regis

I would rather have faith than be frustrated; I'd be a lot better off, as would a lot of people. Great message in this, Lew; well done! Love the piccy!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. ;D

Is this advice? or a poem?
If it's advice I hear nothing.
If it's a poem...Now you're talking.
