I remember waking up, and in the morning hours
Walking to my mothers room, to see her still in bed
Her bible propped up on one knee, her head was bowed in prayer
Seeking God to start the day, before the morning fled

Devotions
On a mid winters eve
In a small country town
My thoughts drift and float
As my eyes fluttered down
And I listen while I sit
To the soft gentle sound
Of my fathers rich voice
While he’s reading out loud
From the Bible thats sheltered
And compassed around
The life of my family
In this small country town
Faith, Epistimology

Christian Faith differs from belief in that you can believe something true and be wrong. Faith, on the other hand, has to do with knowing (Faith is the Greek word Pistis), and for something to count as knowledge, it must be true. (ref: Epistimology
A Christian has Faith, because he knows the thing he believes in is true. This makes sense when you read scriptures such as 2 Peter 1:16-19 with other passages like Hebrews 11:1M and Romans 10:17
Phillipians 4:4-7
Rejoice oh Christian, saved by God
Let never end the sweet refrain
Always rejoice for God is good
Sing aloud His praise again
In all thy works be known of men
A man of moderation
For soon the Lord of Heav’n and earth
Will come to judge thy nation
Let not thy cares take over thee
Though thy heart is filled with worry
But take them to thy caring God
And supplicate Him gratefully
So shall the peace of mighty God
Which passeth understanding
Thy heart in Christ shall ever keep
So strong and everlasting
