Don't Faint in Faith - Poem

DON’T FAINT IN FAITH

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory” 2cor 4:17

O Christian, faint not, you are almost through

What God has spoken, shall He not make it good?

O saints, these troubles are only for a while

Think if you know what lies ahead you would smile

Even if you are the only one in a room of eight

And many other older converts have been caught by men’s sleight

Hear the voice of the One who holds His saints

Saying, “Groan in prayer as you must but NEVER FAINT”

For the joy before Him Christ endured the cross

Now you know he never suffered a loss

For this limited time manage to bear the pain

So for eternity you would reap an endless gain

Why Christ tarries is for us to double up our efforts

Let everyone leave the walls and forget comfort

Let’s go east, west, south, and north

As we tell the whole world OUR TIME IS SO SHORT!

DON'T BEAR WITH FEAR

FEAR is False Evidence Appearing Real
With whom every ambitious must have to deal

It comes at every verge of triumph
And causes the weak things to show themselves tough
When you are just at the point of breakthrough
Then your ‘giant’ shows up to laugh at you

Only when your senses permit, fear penetrates
When you see how big the giant is, you faint
If you had never heard that snakes do bite
Would you have feared walking the bush even at night?

If you had never heard about the ways thieves rob
You won’t have seen any reason locking up your shop

FEAR IS EVERYWHERE
Oh! But you can’t go about blocking your ears
Neither will you keep the eyes closed to resist fear
In fact leave that environment and go elsewhere
Fear is everywhere and waiting for you there!

When fear comes knocking your gate
Don’t bear with it! Declare the words of FAITH
Recall how God has helped you overcome in the past
Seeing your weakest bold face, fear flees so fast
…to be continued, you win over the demon at last
