I Want To Bring My Faith Back

I put my fate on heaven’s hand
To lead me to what was written
No more debate, no angry stand
Time teaches me how to listen
Outside the gate a lonelier land
Gloominess has me imprisoned
Hope it’s not late to join the band
To chant refrain of repentance.

Thank you for the correction. I'm just a complicated person searching for a place where I should belong. Skeptical on things especially about religion. Hopefully, one day I will find my inner peace. Thank you.

I hear you, but I remember this Galileo quote.
We just have to remember not to let our imaginations run too far away from 'reality' (which will punish us if we use our imaginations to build on foundations that are not actually there!)

Thank you so much. Yeah, I know, I read some of your stuff and definitely they exposed a lot of truth. To be honest I admire it. Though, I don't want to complicate everything sometimes. But my faith still complicated to explain in the eyes of the child.

There are moments were we tend to go astray and come back once we realize our mistakes.

I think I would agree. Though sometime we need religion for reason.

Gloominess and depression certainly does tie people up, when w we remember a and meditate on what Christ accomplished for us it's much easier to s see the sunlight or silver lining
