I am the believer and I am still here.

I have seen and felt many failures along the way, and I am still here.

I have seen the best and the worst come and go.

I have seen great ones fall and stay down.

I have seen small ones rise to the occasion and benefit us all.

I am the believer and I am still here.

Are you a believer?

Sometimes it may seem like God is not listening to our prayers. With all of the pain and sorrow in this world, it is hard to believe there is hope on the horizon.

Billy Howard’s poetry is a reminder that God never promised us a world without pain, sadness, or hopelessness, but we must remember to look at all of the blessings he gives us that outweigh the painful moments.
