Poetry: The Answer to Fear

At times, I fear many things in life,(Even when I pretend otherwise.)FinancesFuture,The constant struggle and juggling ofHealth and relationships.Yet, as I muddle through, I find,Even in the scariest of situations,Even in a vortex of the darkest of nights,When I turn to Him,Jesus brings security and safety,Wisdom and insight,Understanding and hope,And the joy of life.When the Psalmist writes in Psalms 27:1“The Lord is my light and my salvation;“whom shall I fear?“the Lord is the strength of my life;“of whom shall I be afraid?” I know thatWith Christ as Lord and guide,I can start to leave fear behind,Because no matter what the circumstance todayOr who the foe,I can trust Him always, knowing ...Jesus is now, here, nearHolding me closeTo His heart.There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear:because fear has torment.He that fears is not made perfect in love. --1 John 4:18By Carolyn R ScheidiesRead more like this in The God Connection
