What Bugs You?

Yes, those bugs and frustrations
God allows, each our way
Are to get our attention
Cause us turn, and obey.

For our Father, the vine-dresser
Is pruning, discarding
As branches, of His vine
For more fruit…keep abiding.

So, despite such depravity
The height of men’s evil
You will comfort, and care
LORD God, Your own people.

So, remember they’re family
Forget not, stay prayerful
Your brothers and sisters
In Christ… do be faithful.

For persecution’s rewarded
Such an honor to bear
To walk the way, of His cross
In His sufferings, His life share.

And there, no more pain
Soon glory, and splendor
God’s presence and peace
His kingdom, forever.

In Jesus’ suffering, God’s path
To bless fallen man
In His cross, our daily dying
God has shown us, His plan.

‘In Me, you have peace’
Spoke Jesus, God’s Son
‘In the world, tribulation
Be courageous… I’ve overcome’.

When confronted by suffering
With reasons unclear
Will we choose to grow better
Or grow bitter, with fears.

Remember our brethren
In starvation and need
Persecuted, forgotten
Daily, do intercede.
