'But without faith it is impossible to please Him.'
To have faith one must seek.
One must believe enough to step out.
Even within the darkness below.
Pleasing, the sense of pleasure beyond desire,
The ability to be completely happy, content.
Without faith, without the sight of vision,
You can not please the Creator,'

'For he who comes to God must believe that He is.'
To come before the Father is to be humble.
Feeling lowly before the Almighty King.
By trusting, believing and hoping enough to kneel.
Believing to have no doubts, no fears.
For your heart rests in His hands.
Without believing in Him favor can't be seen.

'And that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.'
He gives good gifts to those who love Him,
To the ones with faith to believe He shows Himself.
Revealing all of who He is to them.
For they sought the face of God,
They walked a fine line to reach His Glory.
Now they see the fruit of their labor.

Day one of the Scripture Memory Month.
Verse: Hebrews 11:6.

So This morning I recored myself on my MP3 saying this verse with soft music behind me, I've listened to it a ton of times today but my minds been busy else where so I was hoping if I wrote a poem using/inspired by the scripture it'd be easier to remember.
The MP3 idea is actually kinda cool, because having to listen to my voice over and over is making me get use to it and not hate it AS much, still think I sound weird but whatever.

Okay, so don't judge this critique too much - I'm new to giving them, so I'll do my best <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>

First, I have to say that I love the idea! For the reader, it doesn't quite achieve the desired result (memory), but I also know this purpose is only for the writer <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)"/>

The meter is great and smooth - very easy and catchy for my mind to read. I love how it's divided and how each part is so neatly brought together under it's "heading".

I only have one negative critique, and I only took off a half star mainly because I'm not sure how you'd go about fixing it without rewriting the beauty you have here. In the second verse, I found the excessive commas distracting. Grammatically they are correct as far as I can tell, but my eye wouldn't really let me read that one verse too well because I kept seeing the commas. It may be because the other two verses aren't so heavily punctuated.

Overall, this is absolutely beautiful and well written. Very well done! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/c/c…" width="20" height="20" alt=":clap:" title="Clap"/>
