Help me believe.
As unrestrained tears pur down my face, I can feel
   You.
You are here to give me peace
But how can I believe in something I can only feel
   in my heart?
How can I know if You are real,
Not just something I "feel"?

Help me belive.
Give me the faith that I need
To know that, for me, You would bleed
And give Your life. So help me tonight;
Give my soul wings for flight.
Release me from these bonds of sin
So that I can be with You again.

Help me believe.
I want to know You in my heart,
And have the assurance that we will never part.
They say that You're everywhere, so help me to see
Just where You are and where You want me to be.
I'm so afraid to let go, so afraid to trust.
Yet, deep inside my soul, I know that I must
Lay my life in Your nail-scarred hands.
Only then can Your love cut the bands
That hold my soul in this eternal torment.

Help me believe.
Then my soul will be free...
Lord, give me faith to know I'm not alone.
You are here, and that's truly all that matters.

                      Help me belive.....

I am a staunch atheist, but I really found this poem very touching. Your faith inspires you well.

I don't mind. I guess, intellectually and emotionally, I cannot get my head around the concept. It bewilders me, and at rare times even angers me... I've ranted on it here at DA, and if you're a believer and want to read my rant i do remind you that my feelings for my freinds and family who do believe are not actually affected by my own disbelief, except when they're trying to convert me, which is what inspired the rant. I don't understand 'God'... can't see how he/she/it could possibly exist.

wait...do you know :kyoko-maxwell:? Just asking.
I don't believe that someone should shove something down your throat. Christ would NEVER do that, so I don't see why we as Christians should do it either.
I believe that yu should pray for the person and love on them. In time, they will see Christ's light in you. But that's just my opinion.
