Suffering Saints

‘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.

So, our God allows trials
That our faith be tenacious
Great faith, be made complete
To be perfected, need patience.

Satan came before God
In heaven to accuse
Not to worship, nor praise
But Job, to misuse.

Does God have a purpose
In suffering and pain
Sorrow and sickness
Can He turn to gain?

As His sacrifice, living
Must be holy, and pure
For we dare not present
If defiled, and impure.

And so, love not the world
Nor selfishness, greed
Seek God’s glory alone
Let His Spirit, always lead.

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

We may face many storms
Struggling and battling
So tempted to question
Lord, why is this happening?

As we worship our King
No distractions, nor despair
No trials, nor temptations
All perfect splendor, forever there.
