Facing Disasters

“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
Closed Doors

When a door slams shut
There is rarely a ‘why’
God suddenly closes
‘Oft a puzzling surprise.
Adversity? – God means it for good

And so, no matter our lot
Walk by faith, and not sight
Cling to God’s Word, His grace
Midst our darkness, His light.
Sealed, Stamped, Secured by Christ

Since we were purchased, by His blood
The price, now fully paid
Sealed and stamped for eternity
We’re counted righteous, be not afraid.
Finding Joy In Our Trials

Yes, do count it all joy
In the midst of your trials
God is working, to produce
Active endurance, as He disciples.
Seeing Beyond

Are we seeing beyond
Life’s heartaches and pain
Great suffering, and sorrow
…Yet see God, bring gain?
Be Filled, with Christ’s Love

Such love, that passes knowledge
With which, you may be filled
With all the fullness of God
Through His Spirit, be fulfilled.
Why Does God Allow? Psalm 10

Why do You stand
Afar off, O LORD?
Why do You hide
Amidst troubles, outpoured?
Let Go, and Let God

“Not by might, nor by power
But by My Spirit” says the LORD
So that His will, be done
We then see, blessings poured.
God’s Pressure Cooker

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.
