OUR VALLEYS OF LIFE
Tribulations are always our worst valleys of life
And when troubles occur, we tend to wonder why.
How God has allowed us to suffer through sorrow
And remove us from our mountain on high.
Some feel God has abandoned and betrayed them
But the Bible tells us otherwise.
God loves us, protects us and guides us
As His grace makes us more Christ like and wise.
Life’s hardships, heartbreak, fears and joy
Are God’s tests of who we actually are.
As we perform our deeds beneath His sky
Our Earthly intentions are judged from afar.
Whatever problem brings us back to God is good
For His grace is our divine enhancement within.
The more we learn from our valleys of life
The more we reject evil and repent from sin.
God’s Word is our sacred, rod and staff
Protecting us from making ungodly choices.
His test of life is our faith and resolve
As we’re bombarded by the wicked and their voices.
All of Heaven’s Heroes have had their issues
And failed God in their own human way.
Till tribulations drove them to their knees
For answers of a lifetime only come, when we pray.
