If you place your trust in God The future you won't dread, But face with anticipation Believing in what He said. "Lo, I am with you always" These kind words Jesus spoke, To those of his true disciples Who are under his Loving yoke. For all things work together T'ward our highest good, If we are really loving God His purpose to follow,(we should)! No weapons formed against us Shall prosper in their hands, For if our God be for us Who thus, can Him withstand? I know you have your troubles And storms your path assail, Remember He calmed the tempest And said to them "Be still!" Cast your cares upon Him For He truly cares, As a loving Shepherd To free you from life's scares. Thus for you, I interceed And seek for you His wealth That through Christ, you can do all And find abundant health. Let not your heart be wearied You believe in God,in Jesus so do, And whatever your cares and concerns He'll see you safely through. May the LORD Bless and keep you, David |

David, This is a comforting reminder of the tender mercies we have within our reach, if we will only access them and reap the benifits. Thanks for posting this one. Dennis :^) |

David, This poem is so refreshing and full of caring thoughts, almost like Jesus was speaking through you. I would like to ask your permission to print this out. It would be wonderful for me to read at times when I happen to lose focus. |

David, It is no wonder our Saviour singled you out to be a minister for Him. Just as He loves you and uses you, we are blessed with your presence and wisdom. This piece is, without a doubt truly reflective of what Jesus would do. Heartfelt and with great admiration I thank you. |
