Troubles, Tribulation, Torture or Death

And are we offering our help
Pleading often, in prayer
Are we giving finances
Help meet needs, and care?

God’s School of Suffering

His grace, always sufficient
His power, perfected in weakness
By faith, we’re made strong
In Christ Jesus, completeness.

God’s Grace to Endure

God’s pathways, to blessings
Are not comfort and ease
But God guides through trials
So stay faithful, and believe!

Facing Sickness

Facing sickness
Thoughts of death
Feel helpless, Lord
You are my breath.

 Enduring Life’s Hardships                               

Yet despite persecution
Face hardship and suffering
May Jesus, be exalted
Be His sacrifice , a holy offering.

Come Forth as Gold

For ’tis out of the ashes
God fashions like clay
We’re now destined for glory
As we trust and obey.

Blasphemy Laws

Wholly illiterate, impoverished
Yet a Muslim Imam claimed
A blasphemous text, was sent
In English….they were blamed!

Badshah was Beaten

Badshah suffered, so greatly
And paid such a price
But by faith, he obeyed
Assured Christ would suffice.

Counted Worthy to Suffer

And we trust not in self
Despair even of life
But ’tis God, who will raise us
Out of suffering, and strife.
