Leaning on God’s everlasting arms, we are safe from all alarms, <br />Instead of leaning at times we fall, if we don’t heed Christ’s call, <br />A call to cast all our cares to Him, so, we fall into worry and sin, <br />Then sin moves some to despair, when they don’t cast off care. <br /> <br />Each and all concerns in this life, must be given to Jesus Christ, <br />Who guards us from worry and sin, granting us His peace within, <br />God’s peace deep within our heart, as calmness He does impart, <br />This, when we rely upon The Lord, a peace from God is assured. <br /> <br />Worry’s simply Satan’s way, to get our hearts and minds to stray, <br />Away from God’s Word indeed, as new doubt he begins to seed, <br />Desirous, that in a short time, doubt will hinder all peace of mind, <br />Filling hearts with much concern, far from the peace that we learn. <br /> <br />For much peace indeed, is wrought, when we heed what is taught, <br />By the Spirit and Word of God, as Christ leads with staff and rod, <br />Leading us beside waters still, as we follow God, obeying His will, <br />As Christ fills us with His peace, even though trials may not cease. <br /> <br />All that happens in this life, is ordained or allowed by Jesus Christ, <br />So regardless of when or where, indeed our Savior is always there, <br />Helping us in every trial and test, so that in the end we are blessed, <br />For from the beginning of all alarms, we are secure within His arms. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©07/2013)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-god-s-arms/
