Overcoming Challenges
Romans 12:12 (New International Version)
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Heavy, sticky, hard to walk through
The swamp of affliction lies ahead
I cannot climb over or crawl under
Though I could choose to stand still instead
Of reaching to the side I sometimes can't see
But hope, trust and know God has prepared for me.
Shall I forfeit unknown wonders
Due to known woes?
I can hope in the light ahead
Or sulk in present shadows...
But I choose to be happy in what hereafter will be
Though now I stand in muck high to my hips
For before long I'll emerge and wipe off the stains
Having new confidence in heart and new praise on lips.
Prayer: Like you, Lord, sometimes I wish that 'if it were possible, take this cup away from me' ๐๐but like you Lord, I choose to hold on to the Father's hand through all challenges ๐and walk to the light of hope that awaits me on the other side with prayer, praise and joy ๐all the way through. It is never easy...but I trust you.๐ช
