Through the Years of Weeping
There were chapters & seasons in this journey of life that were harder than I dreamed they would be, Where the climbing and the toiling was an uphill battle with no end in sight I could see. But God in His beauty penetrated the darkness that tried to overwhelm me there, And I found that the knowledge of His truth was more important than any heartache that didn't seem fair. It was there in the tossing...and the uncertainty of life that I held onto the Anchor that holds. For the blessedness of His Sprit dwelling within me was more priceless than mountains of gold. It was there that God taught me & tenderly brought me to a truth that I needed to know; That faith must be tested in the fires of adversity to be refined and have chance to grow. Through the years of weeping...my Father was always keeping my prayers and petitions in His hand. For the times He answered "no" or said I wasn't ready He gave the grace so that I could understand. No matter the circumstances or whatever it involved God strengthened me with His faithful heart. And when the trial was over, I knew much more of God than I ever knew of Him at the start.
