A Radiant confidence



God is confidence,
His love is radiant.
A sure way to cultivate a
Radiant confidence in God,
Is to recall, with thanksgiving,
God’s goodness to you in past days.
Look inside yourself and ask
Did I give thanks, did I feel confident
In his presence.
We sometimes overlook the things
He has done, but when you remember
The way God has worked in your
Life you face the future confident in
The reliability of God.
Thanksgiving walk hand in hand,
And if you ever find your confidence
Is beginning to wane give thanks to God.
For past guidance and blessings
And you will find your confidence slowly
But surely returning.
In praising and thanking you my Lord,
I renew my confidence and inspiration
And find my heart filled with thanksgiving.
