I’ve been going through some things lately and couldn’t seem to pull myself up out of this funk! But I noticed this morning that I couldn’t for the life of me remember the things(s) I’ve been grappling with! I don’t even remember what was keeping me up late at night! How can this be?!
Then it hit me. God has done it again! He hid me. He has this way of protecting me from things or hiding the things from me. He’s my shield. He shields me from worry, fear, anxiety and distress.
He only let’s me see
How wonderfully blessed
I am to have him in my life
To provide and protect me
From the distress and strife
bombarding my brain constantly
From morning till night
How he shields my mind
From horrors’ freight
He’s my hero
My rescuer and my shield
That’s why daily, always daily
To him I yield
My body and soul
And all that’s within
With him I never lose
Without him I can’t win
So let him be your shield today
Open up and let him in
With Jesus on the inside
Your life anew begins

This is so beautifully written! I can also relate to you because I tend to have anxiety too, but I know God is the One in control💗

The spirit of the verse is what’s in the poem. You recognize it in all its forms.
You know Him you see Him.
Good eye.
