Fear And Defeat
Fear And Defeat
Miracle Man
2/8/2024
I trust in God’s word,
not in how I’m feeling.
But waiting upon the Lord,
sometimes has me reeling.
Fear impedes sound thinking,
which affects my actions.
Often stealing my confidence,
filling my path with distractions.
I would run away and hide,
from many fears if I could.
But God can turn difficulties,
into something that’s good.
Often fear was a hindrance,
to my reaching life’s goals.
But I didn’t let fear and defeat,
fill my road with potholes.
“Courage is being scared to death--
and saddling up anyway.”
John Wayne
