Facing Hardships

He uses all, for our good
Perfecting within
As He purges the dross
All that selfishness, sin.

Tho’ the fig tree not blossom
With no fruit, on the vine
The olive tree fail…..
Trust the Lord God, divine.

Have you learnt to give thanks
Though adversities grow
Can you trust in the Lord
When no answers show?

Yes, embrace every trial
Each test of your faith
Be transformed, to His likeness
Trust God, to recreate.

So, learn to trust God
Despite deserts around
Pursue God, be assured
That your faith, may abound.

For He knows your way
And when He has tested
You shall come forth as gold
In Him ….you’re so blessed.

And so count it all joy
Tho’ He prunes, ’tis worthwhile
Bear more fruit, of God’s Spirit
Do give thanks, for each trial.

Like Isaac of old
God leads us each day
Through trials, thro’ troubles
Blocked wells, on our way.

So see trials and troubles
As stepping stones, in faith
Trust Jesus to grow you
Learn to rest, in His grace.

Not to wallow in self
But instead, be God’s letter
A testimony of grace
Grow not bitter, but better.
