Faith Test
Category: /General/
(345 views)0
Consider all as joy,
For trials of all kind;
For testing to employ,
That your faith just might find.
Life with tribulations,
Faith brings out steadfastness;
Heightens elevations,
For mature blessedness.
All has a full effect,
So, you may be perfect;
Lack nothing to affect,
Any pain to inflict.
If wisdom what you lack,
Ask the Lord to assist;
He will pick up the slack,
As problems do persist.
He gives generously,
To all without reproach;
Solving vigorously,
The problems that encroach.
In faith you need to ask,
Without having a doubt;
To assist in the task,
The outcome to workout.
For doubts are like the waves,
Tossed about by the wind;
Send to watery graves,
Someone not disciplined.
For you must not suppose,
Or taking for granted;
Be true what you propose,
With faith firmly planted.
Are you double-minded,
Unstable in your ways;
Do not become blinded,
Like anyone that strays.
Be humble as you boast,
In your exaltation;
That the heavenly host,
Builds on your foundation.
Bless those who are steadfast,
That can withstand the test;
Knowing to ever last,
Able to do their best.
