Fear is Sin – v4

Fear is sin, rebellion,
not trusting in our Creator
a leech, a blood sucker
sapping our strength
our joy in this life.
Fear is sin, a seed,
a minion of the Devil
tares in the wheat growing too
within our hearts.

Fear is sin, rebellion,
a separation, a failure,
trusting the world
denying God’s power.
Fear is a sin, a seed,
a hidden fortress
walling off hope
abiding in despair.

Fear is sin, a turning,
doubts, worries
sapping our strength
taking our focus
away from God.
Fear is sin, a weakness,
but God is stronger;
We call on God
to cast fear out.
