Onzain Neerlandaise (New)
Spiritual Tactics in Overcoming Worry
I can’t place issues in God’s hands and worry,
It’s not the way of faith; counterproductive
It makes finding solutions impossible.
Fear atrophies the soul and is destructive
To peace of mind: fear is unreliable
Transforms a pothole into a dark vortex.
Faith is confidence in what is possible,
It encourages mind and body to relax,
To focus on the job and not to hurry;
Faith’s tactic is to use both work and prayer
In overcoming anxiety’s terror.
