When Fear Cripples your Faith

When Fear Cripples your Faith 

Choked up in your lungs

Trying to catch your next breath

Held tight in your heart unrelenting of blood

Gazing into space because

Your pupils blacked out

Decisions, choices, worry

Creeps into your space

Like a thief in the night

Stealing your sanity

That is being held by a piece of thread

Ripped from the shirt off your back

You’re held hostage

To the unknown of the next minute

Trying to exert a simple breath from

Your chest capacity

Yet held in the known

The comfortable

The contentment

When Fear cripples your Faith

It arrest your dreams, hopes, & possibilities

It attempts to fade away the Blessed, Redeemed, and Delivered

It shades and fogs and mystifies perception

It tackles the grace of God, the unmerited favor

That God has over your life

When Fear tries to cripple your Faith

Risk the known fear for the unknown of Faith…..
