Faith: Confirmation through Contradiction
Belief Beyond Evidence
Beauty in brevity.
Power in Presence
Sound in Silence.
Faith asks us to believe in that which we cannot see, which we cannot touch, nor tangibly prove. Faith is not proven before it is held, proclaimed, and owned inwardly and outwardly.
Our faith is a proclamation in the dark, a beacon, and a lighthouse shining Yeshua’s light in the world. Our faith is the construct defying embodied physicality through internal Spirituality and living communion with the unseen Father. Our faith is our standard; a flag planted in fertile ground proclaiming ownership of temple’s planted banner in flesh.
Our faith embodies strength through weaknesses, perseverance under crushing despair, and held hope in perceived hopelessness. Our faith proclaims our fragility. Bound and banded together, braided with the Father’s Sons Holy cross we endure. Our faith is our definitive answer. Even as deaths specter looms close, our eyes are fixed upon Him. Unseen, yet present!
Submission owning Omnipotence:
Still, He surrendered.
Arisen,
death destroyed,
Ransom paid.
prisoner’s shackled selves in cells freed
Souls once bound -to freedom’s rest laid
Our faith is our victory. Each pressure, each trial, and each heartbreak does not diminish our faith, rather it enforces it. Our faith is confirmed through the world’s hatred, whereas the world’s version insists the easy, unmolested path is heavens sign of approval.
The word says:
“Wide and broad is the path that leads to destruction, yet narrow is the path that leads to life everlasting.”
The love of the world is poison to prophets and poets alike if baptized in Altars holy brazier.
Faith is our sacred contradiction.
Weakness in strength
Inhabitation in lowly Souls
Perishing yet Persistently living.
Alive and yet vessels dying,
Joy in despair’s vice like grasp
Wisdom in Fool’s lips,
Revealing the Fire
The Revelation of the Revealer
For to receive from God, one must first acknowledge he exists. Faith precedes evidence.
For: “To the one who has, even more will be given; to the one who has not,even what he or she has will be taken away.”
We cannot bottle our short-lived, worldly glory, for just like us, it too is transient.
Part of Eiri Waters’ unfolding testimony — a soul mid-bloom, a voice not silenced.
This piece appears in her upcoming book:
The Echo in the Silence — a prophetic poetry collection for those who still hear Him whisper.
