Often we fail to understand why things are so
Clouds may come and storms may break,
Look up and focus upon the blue, Try putting some sunshine into life
Though blows fall and troubles brew.
Rather than dwell on shadows and diversity,
Endeavour to meet the day with a song,
Every mindful that in each circumstance
Your Heavenly Father is mighty and strong.
Let’s be content with what the hour unfolds
With the assurance that each passing day
Holds the enabling power of the Saviour
Who gently guides us on our way.
Each day’s a new challenge and an adventure,
Often we fail to understand why things are so,
But we know God will strengthen and shelter
When the winds of adversity blow.
Doreen Craig.
