What is faith?  
Complete trust, confidence in something true.  
Hebrews 11:1 tells us clear,  
“Faith is the substance of things hoped for,  
The evidence of things not seen.”

What does faith mean to me?  
I was ******* myself, seeking discipline to believe,  
But the real struggle lay in doubt,  
Believing in God, yet questioning His power.  
It seems odd, don’t you think?  
Letting emotions cloud my judgment,  
Leading me to act in ways I later regret.  

I was diagnosed with bipolar,  
Felt like my world was crumbling down,  
Unable to control the tempest within,  
It was all or nothing, feelings out of sync.  
Impulsiveness ruled my days,  
Yet now, I fight these battles with Jesus,  
And I’m winning.  

No longer do I bear the weight of labels—  
No bipolar, no depression, no anxiety to claim.  
People may say I’m delusional,  
For placing my trust in a book,  
But if that’s delusion, then let it be,  
For I stand firm in my faith in God.

Today, I refuse to let emotions win.  
I choose to put my faith in Jesus,  
Trusting Him, following His plan,  
And I promise to be obedient in all things.  
What is faith?  
It’s not merely seen to believe,  
You’ll know when you truly have it,  
For it lives deep within your heart
