Greater

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.   Romans 8:37

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”   Matthew 19:26

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in  you is greater than the one who is in the world.   I John 4:4

I awake in the middle

of the dark, silent night,

helpless and afraid,

surrounded by the still and quiet depths,

overcome by the worries and cares,

reminded of an uncertain tomorrow,

fearful of all that lies beyond my control,

then You softly speak,

filling me with Your love,

overwhelming me with Your grace,

cleansing me of sin,

restoring my soul,

reminding me that I will never be alone;

that with You there is no condemnation,

no rejection;

I sometimes wonder

just where this road is leading,

and I know no matter what lies ahead

You will see me through,

You will be by my side,

You will provide a way,

through every trial,

through every test,

You are there,

holding me up

when I can no longer stand,

providing strength

when there is nothing left;

through You I am more than a conqueror,

through You all things are possible,

through You I am greater than the world.
