Engulfed by fear, I declined to go to the mountaintop,
Even when assured the view up there was amazing.
I chose to stay on the sure foundation of the ground,
All manner of lame excuses I spent time raising.
But then I watched as others entered the cable car,
Hating making the tour guide miss the fabulous view.
So, I corralled by fears, and stepped out in pure faith,
And witnessed a beauty that only a few others knew.
I stood marveling at the magnificence of the mountains,
Remembering that the Earth belongs to my Creator.
Then, I knew that in the war between faith and fears,
My faith would from now on always be the greater.
