Fear


Written during a time of serious health issues…a reminder to us all that we do not always have a choice of circumstances, but we do have a choice as to how we handle it.


In the dark of night

Fear seeps in


In the early light

It recedes again


A new dawn, a new day

Set before me


I’m given a choice

Just as it should be


I can feel sad

Defeated today

or

I can decide

To be joyful and say


Thank You for all that is good and right

Thank You for dawn after the night


Thank you for Freedom of heart and mind

Gifts that You give all mankind


Thank You for the choice

I’ve made today


To bask in Your Glory

As You illumine the way
