Tennyson’s questioning of Faith I will not shut me from my kind‚ And‚ lest I stiffen into stone‚ I will not eat my heart alone‚ Nor feed with sighs a passing wind: What profit lies in barren faith‚ And vacant yearning‚ tho’ with might To scale the heaven’s highest height‚ Or dive below the wells of Death?

My Journey of Faith Though I have no memory of it‚ my journey of faith began when I was baptized at St. Michael’s Church in East Longmeadow at three months old. From that point on‚ I have always been brought up as a Catholic. Prior to the age of twelve‚ I never really knew much about my faith. My family and I went to mass close to every Sunday‚ but for me as a young boy it was just simply a point in my day. I did however know the major prayers and understood Jesus‚ but I still couldn’t make the

Fear Vs Faith Once upon a time in a faraway land‚ there lived Faith and Fear; peacefully ruling their Kingdom together in harmony. Now Fear was dreadfully powerful‚ he could petrify people for hours on end; enjoying every minute of it‚ unfortunately.
