When Anxious

When fretting midst pain, hopelessly anxious Doubt-stricken, spiritually unconscious… I admit my sin-caused infirmities Forgetting God so awesomely gracious. When incurring well-deserved chastisements Because of futile, worldly entanglements… I confess my prayerlessness’ status Neglecting the Lord’s mighty involvements. When wavering with weariness-attacks Obviously triggered by arrogance-knacks I yield my soul to the great Redeemer Cleaving to Him Whose mercy* never lacks.
*Psalm 69:13 …O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation. March 20, 2019
