FIND YOUR COURAGE
by Stan Arney © 2008

Have you ever told yourself, it is time to quit
We all have, at one time or another, we can admit
Where do we get the courage to go on
Where do we find the nerve we rely upon

It comes from within, a desire to stay alive
Let me put it more simply, we want to survive
Be it a spelling bee, or an athletic competition
A board game or something created for television

We have a need to continue to try to win it all
This way of thinking will always lead to your downfall
As long as we strive to meet Man's idea of success
We will live under a cloud of immense stress

Imagine if we put that energy into God's work
By reading our Bible, we keep up with our homework
Place your life in His hand, and do what He says should be done
So it was written, but who said it could not be fun

The joy we feel when we accomplish His bidding
The abundance of blessings can be quite overwhelming
When you say, "God bless you", mean it with all your heart
Do unto others, is truly a great way to start

Just think, God can do anything and He is on your side
This also means you have no place at all to hide
With God, all things are possible and that is true
Trust Him or not, the choice is up to you.
