[hometext] => Spurn the parasite if it tries to get a hold on you
[bodytext] => Fear is unacceptablee dear friends ! For a much beloved child of God, Who provides with largess and commends Courage, Trust and Faith and speaks:: "Fear not"! Fear will ferret out and dig a hole In the ground to put fine talents in, So the latter can not reach their goal, But bewail in tears what might have been. . Fear's the very opposite of faith, Lo! It trusts not God nor fellow men, Thus it hops around devoid of grace Like a limping, clucking Cornish hen. Fear is is like the insect nuisance flea, Buzzing, whizzing round the dinner plate, Buzzing round until inanity Strikes the most resourceful dinner mate. Fear leads to the land of Lodebar, As may do some well elected chief, With his blockheads of too many a Czar Lo! the dullest 'mongst the sons of Eve. Fear's adverse to enterprising zest, Is disposed to stun and paralize, Yet it spreads alike the Rinderpest, Shirking offering of gift and tithe. Fear is vain and inappropriate, For a child of God, the Lord's delight, Unacceptable,- eliminate The dull deadbeat, tightwad parasite. Fear is like the crawling boll weevil. Whose cocoons that eat the cotton tree, And keep eating on and on until It will crack by its voracity. Listen to thr voice of Him that said: Through the ages long- "Behold fear not," I AM with you child, be not afraid !- I AM HE who IS, your Lord and God".. .
