Mo's Manic Monday - Faith
Posted: Monday, August 27, 2007 by Travis Cody in
Welcome to another Manic Monday with Morgen. Today's theme is Faith. Don't forget to cruise by MM HQ at It's A Blog Eat Blog World.
As a son, I learned to have faith in my mom. As a brother, I learned to have faith in my sister. As an athlete, I learned to have faith in my teammates. As a student, I learned to have faith in my teachers.
The knowledge that someone is there to catch you when you fall, to guide you when you lose your way, to help you when you stumble...it gives you confidence to take steps and make decisions.
I think that shaken faith disturbs the journey of the mind and soul. So when my father broke faith with me, it took a long time to understand that it was his flaw and not mine.
So as a man, I have learned to have faith in myself and to take responsibility for who I am and what I've done. And I have faith in the love that I share with Pam. The road we are on together is full of joys, both large and small.
FAITH
by Travis Cody
Belief my suit of armor
With joy in self greet the day
Hope my shield of honor
My eyes to lead the way
Peace my sword of might
To battle in a sea of night
Truth my shining banner
With knowledge as the word of light
Each to each promise offered
Trusting e'er in choice of right
The breath of my voice sung on high
Faith in I alone shall be my guide
I'm far from perfect. But I think that having faith in the path I'm on helps me to grow every day.
