No Anxiety: A Modern Day Psalm



Be anxious over nothing, but with prayer and simple asking give thanks to Jesus.
those barking demon hounds abound
in my mind
when I’m looking down and around
rather than
up and at the Holy One
who paid the bill with his blood.
why do the sickos want to get me sick also?
why does the TV want to make me stupid and Godless?
why do the ads of the adversary tell me “anything but Jesus…” will make it all-right?
and why do I sometimes listen?
Because they really don’t know what they are doing. 
and that’s been me,
and sometimes I forget who it is
that has, is, and will
make us whole:
You, Jesus.
Thank you.
