Echoes Beyond Silence: The Unseen Journey of Faith* #832

Echoes Beyond Silence: The Unseen Journey of Faith (Whispers of Dawn: The Silent Song of True Faith) In dawn's hush, where light and shadow dance, Truth whispers, deep and wide, Not in the clamor of words or the spectacle of sight, But in the quiet stream that sculpts the stone, unseen, With the persistence of the tide. This gospel heart, a beacon in the night, Tells of faith not held in cries or crowns, But in the silent depths where actions and souls entwine, Crafting a devotion, pure and divine. True discipleship wears no cloak for show, It treads a path in moments soft and low, In hands that build, in knees that find the ground, In hearts that open, where love is found. It whispers in kindness, in forgiveness' embrace, In the courage to stand, in justice's chase. This faith, this bond to the Divine, Demands more than words can outline; It seeks the essence of our spirit, aligned. As dawn gives way, let us recall: Our faith's measure is not in our call, But in the love that in our deeds does fall. Let us be Christ's, not just in name, But in our life's every claim, Where each act a hymn of devotion does frame, Each step, our commitment's flame. In this journey, may we discover, True faith is a river deep, Flowing beyond words, into a living leap. Written by Steven G. Lee (April 10, 2024)
