Both Faith and Doubt - Re-posted

I pray in faith, with perfect calm,

For people I don’t know,
Yet just today, for a loved one,
I quaked and trembled so.
 
I found myself doubting Your strength
To handle the problem,
Until I heard my calmer side
Say, “Place your trust in Him.”
 
I knew that You would see it through,
But I feared for him so.
I found that there’s still variance
In faith and “what I know”.
 
I knew that You would hold him close
Beneath the surgeon’s knife,
But my faith wobbled when I thought
That he might lose his life.
 
It seems that half of me has faith
And half of me has doubt,
But all of me is confident
You’ll help me work it out.
