Faith

"Sometimes you just have to go on with faith.."

      I walked steadily through the pouring rain,like I did everyday. I wore black,the colour of mourning.
It was a soft drizzle by the time I reached,I walked more slowly now towards the church.
As I entered I stopped for a minute to gaze at the cross hanging above the alter..I took my place and knelt to pray..
"Lord,I don't ask you to take away the thorns that grow along the path I walk alone,but to be there for me at the end of it. I don't ask you to lighten up the load I bear; Nor make the weary road I daily tread one bit fair. I don't ask you to comprehend the present cross,but give me strength to bear it patiently.One thing I ask lord,one thing alone : give me your hand! and when the darkness overshadows all,with you I'll stand again"

I stood up and walked out into the pouring rain once again..
