Oh father in heaven near.
Let it be only you I fear.
365 times you repeat.
The wonder of your defeat.
"Do not fear" it clearly states.
Abundant life is what awaits.
Jabez was a man of no fame,
carrying a name meaning pain.
He cried out to the Awesome one.
The Father of the risen son.
"Oh, Lord bless me indeed.
and enlarge my territory."
And God met his need.
The bible is full of these biographies.
Of when God listens, hears and sees.
Oh, how very blessed we are,
that our Jesus is such a superstar.
Even time is because His name.
B.C and A.D is because He came.
So here is my cry to my Father above,
Bless me indeed with your extravagant Love.
Seriously enlarge my territory.
Reign over me with all your glory.
Grant me my true hearts desire.
For you are a bountiful supplier.
I will follow you with all my heart.
Nothing will ever tear us apart.

Everyone needs this poem taped up on the refrigerator door, or the medicine chest so they'll see it each morning upon rising and taking their coffee. It would inspire us to remember what is important and the reward for remembering.

Well God does have a gift of words, He has used words as a power from the very dawn of time.
Fear is an issue I've been struggeling with the whole 2008 and now I feel like I've turned the page. I guess this poen sums it up.
Thank you so much for your comment!!
God bless your socks off!!
