Prayer Make’s a Difference ~
When our prayers,
get no response . . .
in prayer we need
to remain ensconced.
We mustn’t ever give up,
or from prayers bail out
they’ll make a difference
if we have no doubt.
We cannot lose heart,
in prayer we must persist
then fear and worry
we’ll be able to resist.
We mustn’t be weary,
or faint in our prayers
we need to remember
Jesus wants our cares.
When with our prayers,
God is slow to respond
expect an answer . . .
though it be prolonged!
~~~~~~~~
“And he spake a parable
unto them to this end,
that men ought always
to pray, and not to faint;”

I’ve Got Courage ~
Lord, I’m not focusing,
in on my fear . . .
instead I’ll center on
knowing You are near.
I’m going to be strong,
instead of being fretful
I’m going to have faith
bold and not fearful.
Lord, I’m going to be calm,
instead of being anxious
in You, I’ll stay relaxed
not jittery or nervous.
I’m not going to be,
afraid of anything
instead I will trust
You with everything.
Lord, I’ve got me courage,
powerful and true . . .
for You have given me
strength to wait on You!
~~~~~~
“Wait on the Lord: be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart:
wait, I say, on the Lord.

Let God’s Peace Repair ~
Do not be anxious,
do not let worry eat away
rather let the love of Jesus
bring calm to you today.
Do not be restless,
do not let fear consume you
rather in everything in prayer
ask God what you need to do.
Do not be fretful,
do not let nerves wear and tear
rather with praise and thanksgiving
give to Jesus your every care.
Do not be worried,
do not let doubt rule the day
rather with pleas and petitions
ask God to show you the way.
Do not be anxious,
do not suffer from despair
rather into your heart and mind
let God’s peace restore and repair!
~~~~~~~~
Philippians 4:6-7
“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing
by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving
let your requests be made known unto God.
And the peace of God, which passeth
all understanding,
shall keep your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus.”

Go Easy on Yourself ~
Go easy on yourself,
don’t put yourself down
don’t get depressed
or wear a big old frown.
Don’t carry that burden,
by yourself, physically
don’t take on that load
all alone, spiritually.
Go easy on yourself,
don’t stress yourself out
don’t second guess
or succumb to self-doubt.
Don’t let fear and worry,
eat away at you
don’t allow the enemy
to tell you what to do.
Go easy on yourself,
and don’t forget to pray
for Jesus promises . . .
to give you peace each day!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Philippians 4:6-7

One of Those Days ~
Lord, it’s one of those days,
You know the kind I mean . . .
where my joy and happiness
has lost their spiritual sheen.
It’s a day filled with worry,
troubles too much to bear
a day when grief and sorrow
on my soul wear and tear.
Lord, I’m having a bad day,
I awoke right up to it
it seems all my burdens
decided to give me a fit.
It’s a day full of stress,
anxiety and weariness
a day wanting to keep me
in the pit of dreariness.
Lord, it’s one of those days,
I’ll need Your strength anew
so I can feel the joy . . .
that flows right out of You!

Letting God Do ~
Sometimes letting go,
isn’t so easy to do . . .
especially when worry
has a tight hold on you.
But God wants from us,
every troubling little thing
all that we can’t handle
so His power He can bring.
Sometimes letting go,
to us, doesn’t seem best
but if we’re to hang on
we’ll never find any rest.
For God wants to relieve,
the weight of our care
and learn to trust Jesus
so our burdens He’ll bear.
It’s not easy letting go,
letting God do instead
but if we do and believe . . .
His peace will start to spread!

Give Jesus an Earful ~
Whenever you are anxious,
nervous or fearful . . .
take it straight to the cross
give Jesus an earful.
Tell Him about your cares,
your every single worry
rest with Him for a while
do not be in a hurry.
Let Him know the reasons,
you feel like you do
speak with Him as if . . .
He’s right next to you.
In your conversation,
hold nothing back
tell Him all about
the faith that you lack.
Tarry and stay with Him,
until you begin to feel
His peace and serenity
the calmness, to be still.
When you are anxious,
give Jesus an earful . .
for He doesn’t want you
to be worried or fearful!

Make Fear Disappear ~
Life is full of apprehension,
worry, dread and fear . . .
and I know of only one way
to make them disappear.
So, whenever I’m fearful,
it’s Jesus I focus on
until my trepidation
is all but spent and gone.
For, He gives me strength,
to overcome my anxiety
whenever I give to Him
in my life first priority.
Whenever nervousness,
takes a grip on me
it’s Jesus I focus on
until, it’s His light I see.
For, He brings clarity,
in the midst of my doubt
His light floods the dread
from my mind right out.
Life is full of apprehension,
worry, dread and fear
but, focusing in on Jesus
will make them disappear!

Do Not Worry ~
Do not worry,
it’s easy for us to say
but for the most part . . .
it’s not the chosen way.
For, we worry over things,
we cannot control
over the ones we can . . .
worry, still takes its toll.
Do not worry,
if we do, we don’t trust
that God is truly able . . .
to take care of us.
For, when we worry,
it only makes us doubt
the things impossible . . .
God can even work out.
Do not worry,
do not be dismayed
give God your weakness . . .
for His strength today!
~~~~~~~
Isaiah 41:10
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea,
I will help thee; yea,
I will uphold thee with the right hand
of my righteousness.”

Anxiety Free ~
So often, we succumb,
to our dread and fear
forgetting the promise
God is always near.
We often start to think,
God must be mad at us
forgetting the reason
why Jesus, we even trust.
So often we let worry,
take control of our mind
forgetting God’s peace
is ours to seek and find.
We often feel the panic,
before it even sets in
forgetting when we doubt
is just, letting Satan win.
So often, we succumb,
to worry, doubt and fear
but if we remember to pray . . .
our anxiety ~ will disappear!

What Can Steal My Joy ~
What can steal my joy,
who can take it away?
no, not chaos nor Satan
will lift it from me today.
Not pain, or sickness,
can rob the joy I feel
no, not even the grave
can my gladness steal.
Nor can stress or strife,
cause my joy to tarnish
no problem or worry
will make my joy vanish.
No hurt or heartache,
can embezzle out of me
the bliss I will feel
when Jesus I finally see.
Nothing can steal my joy,
nobody can take it away
not even grief or sorrow
will cause my joy to decay!

Worries Debut ~
When worry makes,
its debut . . .
don’t let fear
take a hold of you.
Thrust it out,
as far as it can go
so in your mind
it won’t start to grow.
Then let God,
take it from there
it’s His worry
now to bear.
He’ll come though,
just as planned
so leave your cares
in His mighty hand.
God doesn’t want,
for you to stew . . .
when worry makes
its debut!

Go To God ~
When facing adversity,
when problems are all about
don’t try on your own
to figure them all out.
Don’t worry over them,
or guess at what to do
don’t come up with a scheme
or reason your way through
Instead ~ go to God,
trust Him with your cares
believing He will answer
the desires of your prayers.
Then walk out in faith,
and see where He will lead
sing to Him your praises
till He satisfies your need!

Be Not Anxious ~
Be anxious for nothing,
let not worry rule the day
give your cares to the Lord
before you go your way.
For, Jesus promises,
through everything in prayer
you will find His rest when . . .
thanksgiving is also there.
Don’t get overly nervous,
don’t fuss and fret about
lest your anxiety will cast . . .
those tiny seeds of doubt.
For, Jesus knows you need,
Him to take away your fear
and a thankful heart will . . .
bring Him close and near.
Don’t let your anxiety,
rob you of your peace
instead let thankfulness . . .
be what you release!

Until God Answers ~
When you don’t know what to do,
and His answers haven’t come to you
when you’re feeling down and out
and you’re anxious and full of doubt.
That’s the time you need to look,
for His promises in the Good Book
you’ll find the remedy for your needs
when to His Word your spirit heeds.
When your troubles take over you,
and worry surrounds all you do
when you’re down and feeling sad
and your fears just mount and add.
That’s the time you need to pray,
asking the Lord to lead the way
He’ll lead you down the right path
so His will for you, you will know.
When waiting for answers to your prayers,
remember that God has all your cares
for He’ll never take His eyes off you
so trust in Him no matter what you do!

Worrywart ~ No More
I use to be a worrywart,
fussed over everything
nervous about the day
the trouble it would bring.
My stomach would churn,
my heart would palpitate
the anxiety that I felt
I couldn’t communicate.
I was spiritually paralyzed,
filled with fright and dread
nothing that I could do
relived the anguish in my head.
I would fret about the future
where I’d go ~ where I’d be
a road of trepidation . . .
was all that I could see.
But then one day,
it all became so very clear
I didn’t have to worry
I had nothing more to fear.
Jesus, promised He’d provide,
my every want and need
He’d sustain and supply me
if His words ~ I would heed.
So, I put my faith into action,
trusting God for each day
giving Him my tomorrows
seeking Him first, when I pray.
I’m no longer a worrywart,
I’ve got my priorities right
for there is nothing to fear
if you see things in His light!
~~~~~~~~~~
Matthew 6.25
King James Version
“Therefore I say unto you,
Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink;
nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.
Is not the life more than meat,
and the body than raiment?”
