Do not fret.......

Christ lives in you, and He is not anxious.

Nowhere in God’s plan for your life does He tell you to learn how to make it on your own.

What can these anxious cares avail thee,

These never-ceasing moans and sighs?

What can it help if thou bewail thee

O’er each dark moment as it flies?

Our cross and trials do but press

The heavier for our bitterness.
Only be still, and wait His leisure

In cheerful hope, with heart content

To take whate’er thy Father’s pleasure

And all-discerning love hath sent;

Nor doubt our inmost wants are known

To Him who chose us for His own.
Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving;

So do thine own part faithfully,

And trust His word, though undeserving,

Thou yet shalt find it true for thee;

God never yet forsook at need

The soul that trusted Him indeed.

-George C. Newmark, Christian Book of Mystical Verse
