No Spirit of Fear

I’ve had many peculiarly awful things,
 Happen to me this year.
I’m not afraid to keep on moving,
Because God has not given, 
Me a spirit of fear.
He’s given me a spirit of power,
A spirit of love, and a spirit of a sound mind.
I’ll keep going on with my life.
Everything is going to be fine.
Great things will happen for me in God’s time.
I have a peculiarly awesome faith,
That in the near future,
I will have great days.



For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. II 
Timothy 1:7

wow, it's great how you took this scripture and applied it to a poem. I admire that you have a sound mind because it seems to be so lacking in many people. Luv, andrea
