I Had Limitations
by Barbara Philbrook

I had limitations, there were things I thought I couldn't do,
but now all things are possible for me or you.

I knew fear and was often giving in to the same,
but now I can face anything, I just trust in Jesus' name.

There used to be times I didn't care to face one more day,
and now I know Jesus is my strength and will stand by me all the way.

There is nothing I must ever again face alone.
My Bible assures me and I have been shown.

Absolutely nothing can come between God and me,
we are bound now and throughout eternity.

I have the "Peace that passeth understanding",
I can reinforce it whenever God's praises I sing.

I lift my voice in praise during trials or adversity,
and God's perfect peace comes washing over me.

I shall never have to walk through anything alone,
I know it in my heart. The seed of faith is sown.

I once had limitations but now blessed assurance is mine,
if you desire it, the very same can be thine.

My friend, accept what is being offered  to you,
and you will have the same blessed assurance too.
