If you are in a trying place
And circumstance don't want to face,
And then you pray to be relieved,
God's purpose may not be achieved.
You may not understand this season,
But God may have a special reason.
He may be working to bring change
And wondrous things for you arrange.
Don't wish to leave from where you are.
To "run" could make things worse by far.
Seek the Lord to know His will,
Then wait, be patient and be "still".
God knows exactly what you need
And knows the best way to proceed.
Let Him complete His work in you.
Give Him the glory which is due!
".....He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ."
Philippians 1:6 NKJ
