Good Times And Bad Times

"Good times and bad times shall walk hand-in-hand,
But those who know Jesus in dark times will stand."
These are the words which God spoke in my ear.
I knew in my heart that I should not fear.

He is the "balance" so we do not waver
But always look up and His goodness savor.
His light is greater and His love is more...
Above any challenge which might be in store.

He is the Rock... a sturdy foundation
Upon which to stand through trouble's duration.
We can rejoice and not live in fear.
Should we face problems, God's goodness is near.

"But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, 'Thou art my God'."
Psalm 31:14 KJV
