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.
Love not the World

Are we carnal and fleshly
Walk by faith, or by sight?
By our lusts, sensual desires
Live by instincts, appetites?
Teach us to number our days

We are given each day
For God’s glory, not mine
To obey and to please Him
For His purpose divine.
God’s Pressure Cooker

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.
Failing, Falling or Faith?

When we’re failing and falling
And we’re hitting, rock bottom
We can stand, on Christ Jesus
Our sure Rock, and still blossom.
Faith or Frustrations?

Not to dwell, on sin and failure
Rather focus, on the LORD
See beyond, my upset feelings
Trusting God, see blessings poured.
Angry at Life?

Ask God change your view
Give thanksgiving each day
Let His Spirit control
Let Him teach you to pray.
Abraham: Walking by Faith

Yes, held to God’s Word
His promises, and provision
Believed God would guide
Abraham’s hope and vision.
Faith amidst Adversity

So then friend, you can find
In your darkest, deep hour
God is ever, our hope
Can uphold us, by His power.
Faith amidst Trials

For our testing and trial
Are to strengthen our trust
As He bids us, to believe
All to Him, entrust.
