By Faith You Rise as Robin Hood

Since I was young, I understood,
My heart was drawn to Robin Hood.
Not just the tales of forest green,
But courage shining where hope seemed thin.

Was it the bow, the path unknown,
Or being outcast, yet fully shown?
Perhaps his strength to stand alone,
And choose the right when wrong had grown.

A gentle soul with giving hands,
Helping others through the lands.
He bore the pain yet still gave more,
A heart that opened every door.

Never saying “no” to need,
Even betrayed, he chose good deeds.
What faith it takes to give, not take,
To love through trials for Heaven’s sake.

It takes me back to days long gone,
When Grandma’s door was never wrong.
No one hungry, none turned away,
Her love reflected Christ each day.

It’s more than faith, more than kind,
It’s roots that shape a heart and mind.
A legacy of truth and grace,
That only God Himself could place.

Though mocked, unloved, misunderstood,
Still brave and bold stood Robin Hood.
Against injustice, strong he stayed,
Though thanks were few, he never swayed.

So when you’re tired, feeling low,
Remember this before you go:
The same God who gave him might,
Will carry you through darkest night.

Lift your head, take aim, be true,
God fights your battles and walks with you.
For deep inside, when life feels crude,
By faith you rise as Robin Hood.

What Ya’ Thinking?

I’m Willie

Hello and Welcome to my Website.
My name is William Torres, but my family and friends call me Willie. It is a pleasure to be here with you today, and I am excited to share my faith journey with you.

My journey has been amazing and fulfilling as a new Christian. I have seen God work in my life in ways I never could have imagined. I have grown closer to my faith and have seen Him work in my life and the lives of those around me. I am truly blessed to call myself a Christian, and I am excited to continue to grow in my faith.

I believe that I have come a long way in life. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a better man, husband to Frances Torres, and father to our children. I have strived to be a good friend and companion to those I have been fortunate to build relationships with. I have learned to appreciate the small moments of joy and fulfillment that come with every human connection.

I began writing stories that I believe were inspired by the Holy Spirit. These stories are my testimonies about the different trials I have gone through, and how the Lord has helped me to overcome them. Through this process, I’ve discovered that I can forgive those I once vowed to never forgive, and in turn, my relationships with them have been restored. They are now a huge blessing and a special part of my life.

I hope that through my writing I can be a source of encouragement to other people in their faith and relationship with the Lord. I pray that those who read my words will be blessed by the Lord and find strength and comfort in His Word.

To be honest, I have had to come to terms with the fact that I am not perfect, but it is in this place of acceptance that I am able to truly worship a God who is. His infinite love brings me joy, strength, and peace, and I am thankful for the privilege of being able to serve Him.

I have also started a Social Media Ministry on Facebook, which I invite you to visit here. Being Crazy For Christ is a platform where I share my journey of faith, and I am also on YouTube – Willie Torres Jr. and I am excited to see all that God will do through it.

This is my hope, and I’m so thankful for it. I’m thankful for the love of Jesus, and I’m thankful for the chance to grow in Him together with you.

You Are Loved

Willie Torres Jr.
