Activate Faith, Not Fear

God is supplying all my needs.
Whatever I fear, takes root and makes 
me weak in the knees!

Fear, is that unseen enemy that keeps me 
awake at night.
Fear allows negatives to become my reality.
My own, self created fright.

Your mind is the bull's eye
of the Devil's target.
Flying arrows of fear, it is
you who must stop them.

Your beginning and end, only the Lord knows.
Not politicians, nor scientists dressed in fancy 
clothes.

No pompous government official can stop my final fate!
It's already inscribed on God's golden, eternal slate!

The chief scientist who started our lockdown has resigned for having his married girlfriend over breaking self isolation rules. Won't be long before we hit the beaches. Tom

Good morning, Tom! Scientist broke the rules? I am sure others are, too. I thought the tyrannical Mayor of Chicago was gross getting a hair cut when nobody else can! Dr. Fauci, here told people not to use that malaria drug! Yet doctors did and it saved many lives. This news not on CNN nor MSNBC, nor any uber liberal paper. I am sure lovers, not married, do get together for a "roll in the hay." The numbers of dead, highly exaggerated to keep us scared. We seem to like it? The Stockholm Syndrome" we love our not so intelligent captors?Depression eats away at our bodies, Good grief! Panagiota xx
