What A Fool I’d Be
Poetry by Lance Landall
A Spiritual And Inspirational Poem from All-Creatures.org

Amidst troubles in my life, I’ve a God who’s there for me, One who’ll never let me down, One I trust, implicitly. Though storms may round me rage, and threaten to overwhelm, I have His precious promise, He’ll be standing at the helm.

He’s a God who’s promised much, for much, He can deliver, As He is the Creator, sustainer, and life-giver. All His promises He keeps, for a God of truth, is He, Thus I know He’ll see me through, all that lies ahead of me.

He is powerful and strong, He commands, and things are done, He controls every movement, of the earth, the moon, and sun. The stars and all the planets, are securely held in place, By this same God, who breathed life, into the human race.

Though He’s the God Almighty, who reigns majestically on high, His love, all this surpasses, hence why for me, He came to die. The cross that bore His body, symbolizes the degree, He was prepared to go too, for a wretched one like me.

Now that’s a God worth trusting, when I’ve problems in my life, When my very life is threatened, or, when in the midst of strife. Despite what may befall me, He will make it fit His plans, For my God, my best interests, very clearly understands.

Each day I am reminded, that He deeply loves and cares, For when I daily study, such, via His Word He shares. But also through life’s journey, so much evidence I see, That proves these things He shares, can be taken seriously.

Oh yes, what a fool I’d be, not to follow faithfully, This great God, who’ll let me spend, life with Him, eternally. How could I let tribulation, or even threat of death, stop me, Remaining faithful to the One, who is always, there for me.
