Words and deeds


After Romans 4

Words and deeds
cast aside by faith
achievements cast aside
by faith
accomplishments cast aside
by faith
all cast aside, meaningless
without faith, a chasing
after the wind. Without faith
we are nothing. With faith
we are everything.
The difference is not us.
Words and deeds flow from faith
and not the reverse because
faith is the alpha and omega
faith is the cornerstone
faith is the impetus
faith is the original impulse
for all that follows
the mustard seed for all
that grows
and it is given
it is planted.
