Suffering Saints

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

Suffering

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

Satan Accuses- God Justifies

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

Not Knowing Why

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

No more Sickness, nor Suffering

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

Facing Adversity

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

Deep Waters

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

Count it All Joy

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

Bitter or Better?

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

Being Tested in the Dark

May we learn, to thank God
Worship Him, despite all
Fierce adversity, or blessings
Before God, humbly fall.
