THE OATH

Faith is when it feels as if we are walking  with the strong wind against us, on ice that will crack any minute below our feet but we don't stop, we don't turn away .
 
We take the oath to believe in something more than ourselves,something more than than this world offers.
 
We keep going. By faith. Not by sight.
 
Like a dark foggy nite that makes it  so you cannot see in front of you, you act with caution trying to take the right steps.
 
You're a little shaky but you know. You just know. Any minute you'll be through the worst.
 
Suddenly you feel something. You hear something.
 
Could it be the whisper of an angel wings? Is this the beginning  of my miracle?
 
Do angels always surround the Holy Spirit when He takes over?
 
You hope so. It's a beautiful feeling the world cannot produce.
 
You're ready to be carried through now.  

Giving up is just not an option.
 
You've taken The Oath to believe in something more than yourself.
