What Faith Looks Like

Faith is unrelenting,
a voice that speaks to mountains
and into storms.
Move.
Peace, be still.
Not polished.
Not composed.
Not quoting perfectly memorized scripture.
Just believing.
Just calling.
Faith is not the absence of fear —
it is refusing to let fear take the lead.
Faith does not deny the fire.
Faith does not pretend the winds aren’t rising.
Faith looks straight at the impossible
and still speaks Jesus.
This virtue is not always loud.
Sometimes it sounds like a whisper
through cracked lips.
Faith may shake.
Faith may cry.
Faith may not understand.
But faith speaks
as if it knows
He hears.
And He does.
