August 29, 1995 (concluded)

from where does faith come...
no matter what one believes
it comes from nowhere

for faith existed
even before a before
waiting to be found

hidden in being
in emptiness it resides
there to be revealed

then a paradox…
to have faith doubt is needed
why else would faith be

yet faith dispels doubt
as if it did not exist
even though it does

not through denial
does coexistence occur
but through confidence

another gift found
with faith...confidence is hid
eternally so

a gift that assures
the path being forged each day
is indeed the one

faith indulges doubt
allowing assured action
to walk this dark walk
