Fear Is Liar

Fear is so shallow, it’s all in the mind Holding back our dreams as we cringe behind In all honesty and validity—it obscures,conceals, blinds Obstacle of justices on the road will possibly unwind. Fear leaves a gap between tongue and tooth Like ebb of calm seas, hesitant to kiss the shore of truth It whispers messages of darkness instead of light Converting right to wrong, confuses…squeezing it tight. Fear builds the weakest roof for a raging storm Closing an umbrella of prayers in pointed horn Faith drifts away in the flood of fear, then doubt’s born Hope dwindles in the heart, propelling self’s scorn. Fear is never found in the life of noble heroes They die with no fear, but with dignity in their caps to shoes Death of fear and foes they sing marching to a bloody course Their monuments greatly stand with their rearing horse To alter fear to truthfulness, in mind we shall withhold Cling to our Almighty Savior-- our strength, our armor of gold Have fear in Him, as the bible says, have fear in the Lord Submit fully ourselves only to Him, do good, live in His words.

Great lesson. Fear of God is equal to fear of offending Him.
