No Matter What
The Only Thing That Beats Fear... Is Faith, Love & Trust!
.
Knowing... That He Loves Us.
Knowing... That He Is Greater... Than Any Problem...
And Knowing... That What He Started... He Will Finish.
.
The Lord Is My Shepherd... No Matter What.
As the old song says...
.
God has not promised skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;
God has not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain..
.
But God has promised strength for each day,
Grace for all our trials... light for our way,
Rest after labor... help from above,
Unfailing sympathy... undying love.
.
God has not promised we shall not know
Toil and temptation, trouble and woe;
He has not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden, many a care.
.
God has not promised smooth roads and wide,
Swift, easy travel, needing no guide;
Never a mountain, rocky and steep,
Never a river, turbid and deep.
Annie Johnson Flint (1866-1932)
