After rereading 'Sacred' I thought it's anagram of 'scared' would make an equally good word for the start of the first three verses.
Scared hope,
bound blindly in me,
Scared faith,
insecure and trembling,
Scared love,
hidden within,
Scared joy,
fragile and brittle,
Scared peace,
Surrounded by rage,
Scared future,
impossible to predict.
Fear grips us. Fear binds us. Fear holds us down. Fear suffocates.
In 1 John 4 it says, 'perfect love drives out fear.'
Do you believe this to be the case? If so, are you living it? If not, why not?
