Impossible (Psalms and Prayers)

The valley before me draws into the haze

Depth without bottom, width beyond far

Despair in the moment prolongs into days

Darkness in daylight, night minus stars

Oh, be it simple that mountain to move

Yet a grain holds heavy, a speck carries weight

Faith much like Thomas, to touch is to prove

Impossible lives in me, anguish my fate

To walk on the water in the face of each day

Calm waters turn angry when thrust by the gale

Faith much like Peter, brave until sway

Oh Lord, grant me faith true when self faith does fail

For then dwells the Spirit, His gift is of love

His love never fails, all things to believe

With hope they abide eternal thereof 

Impossible flees them, my soul they relieve

John 20:26-29                “…..and Thomas with them…..reach your hand here and put it in my side…..”

Matthew 14:28-31         “And Peter…..walked on the water…..but when he saw that the wind was boisterous…..O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”

1 Corinthians 13            “…..love…..believes all things, hopes all things…..”
