A misty forest landscape

With a God so big, why would one fear?
He controls the sea, the storms that appear.
He knows tomorrow, before it has come.
The hairs of our head, He knows the sum.

Why would one question a God like this?
Why do some doubt, or ask amiss?
“Trust in the Lord” the Scripture has said.
But our own understanding, we lean on instead?

I’m sure it’s confusing, to the all-knowing One.
All the miracles, with a word, they were done!
He looks to and fro in this world today,
For one that will trust, without a delay.

The things of this world are so brilliant and fast.
Do we even need God, maybe old-fashioned at last?!
Enough with the folly, we all know the truth.
We have seen God working, yes, from our youth.

Nothing can replace our almighty God;
To say any different would certainly sound odd.
He’s waiting for the church to trust Him once more.
He stands and knocks; will you open the door?

Not just in a pinch, or when life’s too hard,
But every moment, your fears disregard.
He’s looking for a people once more in our day,
With confidence in God, His power to display.

CONFIDENCE

Something that I have noticed repeatedly as I read God’s Word is that God’s people are confident. Consider Noah. When God told him to build an ark, there was no wavering. He spent the next 120 years confidently doing…
