Courage of Faith
by Gavin M RoyConflicted
“No one that denies the Son has the Father”
Contradicted
Emotions, intellect, feelings
Castrated
Forgiveness and Love
Denial
Of his “only begotten son”
Deceit
Burns on your tongue
Defiled
The spirit of the One
Analyze
the path to the Redeemer
Anoint
In his Love and Promise
Acknowledge
Faith takes courage
Belief
IsnÂ’t a crutch for the ignorant
Blessings
Are accepted through Grace
Bare
We stand before the Lord

be strong. Do everything in love” - 1 Corinthians 3:1
