It Will Be For Our Good
Sometimes God asks us to wait while it seems the world passes us by.
While the joys of life that refresh the soul are eclipsed by cloudy skies;
While the temptation to venture out against His perfect will makes it most difficult to quietly stand still.
While temporary relief is hard to refuse, especially when our hearts are confused.
But when we release our troubles from our hands and surrender them to the Lord, all our fears and apprehensions will vanish in one accord.
Therefore, we are assured that the outcome of each trial will ultimately be for our good, when we wait on the Lord, things will be as they should.
