Confidence

EVELYN MAY SCOTT THAIN

Mind is directing me;
I have no need to plan. Let me but pray
That each succeeding day
I gain a clearer sense of unity
With God, a confidence
In His unerring guidance that will bring
Progress unfaltering,
The mandate of divine intelligence.

Love is protecting me;
I have no cause for fear. Let me but know
That I must ever show
More love when fear assails, more joyfully
Acknowledge the great good
Which He bestows on all. Then shall I prove
There is no fear in Love,
But peace untroubled, radiant gratitude.

Principle operates;
That is enough for me. Let me but learn
That I must first discern
If Principle or human will dictates
My course. If Principle,
Then shall I build upon the rock, and no
Onslaught can overthrow
My fortress, firm and indestructible.
