"Confidence"

“Confidence*”

9/16/14

Where no doubt enters within

not questioning understandings

having a sure knowledge given

thus witnessing to what’s known

spoken as truth unblemished

clearly to see into the forever

eternally knowing what’s there

fearing not the world/worldly

how many can claim such

with confidence unwavering

knowing who they are

why they are here today

and where someday to go

so very few have such

while to all if might be

when questioning why not

no doubt ever to enter in!

*The single biggest complaint against the Prophet Joseph Smith was that he was too confident - while others claimed no such confidence!

Eduard Meyer, "Ursprung und Geschichte der Mormonen" 1912
