a journey of faith

... is not the eradication of poverty and suffering
nor a change of social status from poor to middle class
it is not an accumulation of properties and doodads
nor a hoarding of degrees and titles

but, a place of the truest riches and purest wealth

where one grows to see the beauty of life
that bright side of the world
where butterflies and moths fly
where the grasses and flowers thrive

where people matters the most
where relationships grow and linger
where trust and hope and love pervade
where the heart of the matter is the heart!

where joy and peace find permanent residence
where one finds home in the bossom of love
the love eternal, enduring, perfect
the hope in grace, trust in mercy

where faith is the real wealth
seeing much even in darkness and nothingness
where ordinary men and women
make extraordinary bold steps in life

where seeing the unseen is reality
where knowing the unknown is ordinary
where one discerns that only with
the invisible eye can the essentials be seen

for it is only with the heart
that one can
see rightly
hear clearly
love deeply
trust fully

journey in faith
growing in love
in peace and hope
in trust and belief

for what the heart sees and feels
only the heart understands
and what really matters
as long as being endures

in His time
in His ways
in His call
in His heart!

to Him who holds all things
to whom everything belongs
and find their being
to whom everything will go...
