Rejoice under Trials
Let it be all joy to you,
Each and every day through;
As trials and temptations,
Turn into jubilations.
Always try to do your best,
When faith is put to the test;
You have the power of hope,
That is helping you to cope.
Use it for the full effect,
Do not ignore or reject;
So you may be made complete,
And not go down in defeat.
If without faith then request,
Let God ensure you are blest;
Praying is a way to start,
In ridding doubt in your heart.
Doubt is like the waves at sea,
That the wind drives to decree;
And comes crashing on the land,
Sifting out sapience sand.
Never let wisdom drift away,
And that allows you to stray;
Dividing you from His love,
Flowing from blessings above.
