In Faith, Not Fear

 

There are those times we all must face,
Not knowing what’s ahead.
We’re not sure what we’ll walk into,
Except for fear and dread.
 
Yet, in those times we still must walk,
We cannot sit and hide,
For life is coming at us fast
And will not be denied.
 
It’s in those times that we must stand
And choose what we will do.
Will we step forward through the mire
With fear? Or faith in You?
 
We can’t walk through what we don’t know
Without a sense of fear,
Unless we’re stepping out in faith
That You are ever near.
 
For You have seen what lies ahead,
And Your plan is in place.
If we are walking in that truth,
Then Your peace sets our pace.
 
It’s not by courage born in us
That we can face travail,
It is our faith in You alone
That keeps us on that trail.
 
2 Corinthians 5:6-7
So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight.
