Poem
God allows us to be born so we can die He allows us to be sick so He can heal us He allows us to be weak so He can make us strong He allows us to be poor so He can make us rich in faith He allows us to be impatient so He can teach us patience He allows us to be lost so He can seek and save us He allows us to be dirty with sin so He can cleanse us with his blood He allows us to be discouraged so He can encourage us He allows us to know grief so He can comfort us He allows us to fall so He can pick us up He allows us to have problems so He can solve them He allows us to think we are wise so He can teach us foolishness He allows us to be proud so He can humble us He allows us to be broken so He can put us together again. God allows us to backslide so He can bring us to repentance He allows us to experience conflict so He can give us his peace He allows us to feel empty so He can fill us with his Spirit He allows us to experience hunger so He can feed us his Word He allows us to be imprisoned so He can free us by his power He allows us to cry so He can wipe away our tears He allows us to know fear so He can teach us to trust him He allows us to feel lonely so He can manifest his presence He allows us to be rejected by man so He can show us his acceptance He allows us to be hated by the world so He can shower us with love He allows us to go through valleys so He can show us mountains He allows us to be attacked by enemies so He can give us victory He allows us to suffer hard trials so He can teach us how to rejoice God allows us to die so we can live with him, forever. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31)
