I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be
A pleasant road;
I do not ask that thou would'st take from me
Aught of its load.
For one thing only, Lord, dear Lord, I plead:
Lead me aright—
Though strength should falter, and though heart should bleed—
Through peace to light.
—Adelaide A. Procter

O, why and whither?—God knows all,
I only know that He is good,
And that whatever may befall
Or here or there, must be the best that could.
—John G. Whittier.

Lead me, O Jehovah, in Thy righteousness because of mine enemies;
Make Thy way straight before my face.
—Psalm 5:8

WHOM SHALL I FEAR? (PSALM 27)

http://www.psalmistry.com/midi/27.mid

The Lord is my Light, my Salvation:
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the rock of my being:
Whom shall I fear?

1. Enemies rise up against me.
Battle lines are drawing near.
Though I'm surrounded by danger,
I have no reason to fear.

2.Lord, in the day of my trouble,
safe in Your house may I be.
You are my hope and salvation.
My heart will cling unto Thee!

Ending Refrain

The Lord is my Light, my Salvation:
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the rock of my being:
Whom shall I fear?

Whom shall I fear?
Be strong and take heart,
And wait for the Lord!

Thank you for blessings me with scripture.

This isn't the most encouraging verse, but something good to remember:
"Be vigilant, Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour." - 1 Peter 5:8

Some encouragement:
"...let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." - Hebrews 12:1

"In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world." - John 14:33
