Afraid

Afraid of Bad News?

Are you afraid of bad news,
Refusing to trust
When the phone rings insistently
And answer you must?

Are you afraid of bad news
Refusing to trust
When the doctor speaks words
And faith is then hushed?

Are you afraid of bad news
Refusing to trust
When finances tumble
And confidence turns to disgust?

Are you afraid of bad news
Refusing to trust
When faith is the answer
And hope is a must?

Yet in good times and bad
We repeat the refrain
That “All shall be well"
Because Jesus does reign.

He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord.  Ps. 112:7
