Just Past the Bend

Are we so overcome, by the trials we endure? That our focus is blurred, in the One we are sure. We see our current problems, as larger than life. Then we question has G od forgotten us, in all this strife. We wonder, doesn’t G od see, what I’m going through? Will I have to go it alone, in the things that I do? Forgotten you are not, but loved you are! But no one escapes a world, of sin ...  without a few scars. Dark seasons still visit,   the most pure at heart. For even the heroes of the faith, endured their part. Paul was beheaded, Peter was upside down crucified. Let us never forget... Christ Himself, suffered horribly and died. We sometimes forget, there is a big picture to be gained. So be not deceived beloved, you labor not in vain. Fear not, for I am with you;    be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you,    I will...

When it seems that life, is going so well. Somewhere in the shadows, a trial is beginning to swell. To walk in trial, yes, we've all been there. But to walk on through, still takes... much prayer. Oh yes, we've fallen, when trials have come. Some are still down, while others have run. Trials still love, those who fall and just sit. Just as much as they hate, those who won't quit. But should we fall, we mustn't stay down. For the race is not won, face first... on the ground. 2 Timothy 4:7
