Overcoming Fear with Faith

In trials deep, we're not exempt, 
yet God sustains, His promise kept. 
With faith, we rise, in strength, we're draped, 
in times of strife, His love's our cape.


In sorrow and suffering, find not the end, but a pathway to joy, on which we ascend. After days of difficulty, in darkness we strive, new life awaits, in His love, we thrive. Just as a woman in labor feels the pain, her joy overflows when birth is her gain. So too our trials, tribulations so vast, lead to spiritual growth, shadows are cast. 

Jesus, our Savior, in suffering, He's near, brings good from the bad, casts out our fear. In the most difficult times, in circumstances so grand, He's with us, guiding us, with His loving hand. Everything is in God's Hands, so divine, offer up our suffering, in His glory, we'll shine. Trust in God's plan, though the end we can't sight, in His eternal love, we find our light.

In every word, in every verse, His love and wisdom, we immerse. Unfolding His plan, in love, we're wrapped, in His teachings, let's be apt. Understand, communicate, and know, the Gospel's teachings, in us, they grow. In honor, excellence, let's bask, in His praise, let's undertake our task. 

Praise be to Jesus, our King so bright, all-powerful, ruling in His righteous might. Sovereign and supreme, He stands tall, conquered death, for us gave His all. On the cross, evil was defeated, by His sacrifice, death was cheated. In His Shekinah glory, we partake, His love and grace, for our sake. Praise be Jesus Christ, our King, to Him, our praises, we joyfully sing.

Chosen out of love, despite our sin, His grace abounds, dwells within. Worthy of praise, He stands alone, delivers us from sin, on His throne. From death to life, His power can sway, in His love, we find our way. 

Connected, we are, in Christ, as one, in mutual support, His work is done. Trust in His faithfulness, so grand, in difficulty, by us, He'll stand. Focus with a positive gaze, in peace, our troubled hearts, He'll raise. Dwell on the truth, the right, the pure, on things lovely, of good repute.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
