Be happy when you are tested,
Your faith is being invested;
Different ways that you may act,
That causes how you will react.
It checks out how you will endure,
When temptation will try to lure;
In a dangerous position,
Of getting a strange disposition.
Endure till the testing is done,
When heard from the Father or Son;
If your faith is truly sincere,
You are able to persevere.
Then you will be feeling secure,
Being spiritually mature;
Because your faith did not deplete,
You are spiritually complete.
If you ever need any wisdom,
Ask God to send from His Kingdom;
Then you will know what you should do,
On the problem to get you through.
God is generous finds no fault,
And will help if trying to halt;
With the problems that you face,
And comfort you with His embrace.
When you are asking for something,
Fear not for He will truly bring;
Never try to have any doubt,
Just like waves being tossed about.
One who has doubt then should expect,
Having those times of neglect;
For their lack of faith is showing,
And no confidence in knowing.
