No matter what your circumstance,
Ask the Lord what you can learn.
From what may seem quite difficult,
In God's sight merit you will earn.
When you choose to grow in Him
Your efforts will bring rich reward.
He'll add insights to your life...
His wisdom in you will be stored.
He'll take note of how you've grown
And turn your efforts for your good.
Lessons which you've learned in Him
By you will then be understood.
"For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;"
Colossians 1:9-11 KJV
