My whole attitude and purpose for living has completely changed since I became a follower of Jesus.  Before Jesus I was anxious and fearful of the outcome of my future.  Before Jesus I had a completely different vocabulary; I was frequently upset, worried or afraid so my words were angry, bitter, and at times not very nice.   I now have a heart new and a mind that is more in tune with Jesus, the Word of God who loved me enough to die to save my soul.

Onward Walks the Child of God

Onward on the path of life;
Overcoming evil influences such as worry and strife.
Each day walking forward, leaving the past behind,
Going forth, walking in the tracks the Lord leaves to find.
Shoulders are squared to meet the day without fear of defeat,
With assurance you are equipped to each situation meet.
Praises ring with words of love; not with grumbling lips
Onward walks the child of God that has the goal ahead.
Thankful hearts see the future holds promise for them.
They count on Jesus as their protector and friend.
The redeemed are shining examples for the world to see.
Onward walks the child of God as they live for Me.

Psalms 112:7
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

1 Corinthians 15:58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
