God Gives Us A Power

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us. Ephesians 3:20 (NASB)

God gives us a power
we so seldom employ,
For we’re so unaware
it is filled with such joy.
The gift that God gives us
is anticipation,
Which we can fulfill
with sincere expectation,
For there’s power in belief
when we think we will find
Joy for the heart and peace
for the mind.
And believing the day
will bring a surprise
Is not only pleasant
but surprisingly wise.
