Finding Peace, Not Fear
I wrote this poem about five years ago. It seemed appropriate for today.
Giving up Fear
I learned of your anxiety
This news I’m sad to hear
I long ago was in your shoes
Crippled by my fear
You daren’t go out on the town
Lest the fear cause you to take cover
Even to celebrate with friends
Is a challenge, you discover
Yet “Do not fear” the Lord has said
He longs to keep you near
Trust in Him to care for you
Give to Him every fear
With petition and thanksgiving
Each care and worry release
As I have experienced so can you
He’ll grant you abundant peace

I wonder if it works… there are days when I believe we have failed the challenge we’d been given.
It’s worked for me. Even in these trying times I’m not feeling fearful. Concerned, yes, and though to take proper measures, but not fearful.
