Trial and Error

Sometimes life can be so strange,
Experiencing good times and bad;
Causing us to go through change,
As it either makes us happy or sad.

In going through trial and error,
Bringing out the worst or the best;
That can even cause sheer terror,
When we are being put to the test.

Nada is by chance rather by God,
For guiding us through each day;
Helping us where we are flawed,
And when we have gone astray.

It is to keep us on the right track,
On what we say as well as do;
Learning to make a comeback,
In pursuing the wrong avenue.

So nothing really to be feared,
Since it is all within His plan;
Conditioning to be persevered,
And for being part of His clan.
