By Faith I See By Brenda Drake

This poem is an example of a new upcoming book Whispers of the Heart.

Whisper: By faith you behold great things.

1 Peter 1:8-9
Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

By Faith I See

By faith I see Jesus walking by my side,
Encouraging to remember I am His bride.
He faithfully prepares my steps;
To trust in His care and to good things expect,
To keep my heart full and His promises treasure.
And to not fear, worry or become anxious beyond measure,
By faith I watch for His soon return,
Carefully I check my lamp so His fire burns.
By faith my garments are white and clean not stained,
For I ask to be shown sin so they do not remain.
I go to the water and take a deep drought of its flow.
By faith I offer my heart, body, mind and soul.
I rejoice and sing songs of love I by faith believe;
My God accepts and in delight receives.
By faith I see my Lord whispering to my listening ear,
Come, my faithful servant thy Bridegroom is near.
My heart rises in expectation when I see with faith’s eyes,
The day when the faithful and the dead in Christ rise.
My faith sometimes seems weak but at times raises to great heights;
Like an eagle it climbs when it is renewed by new insight.
