Notes About The Poem

God's wisdom can preserve and improve our lives and our witness as we are tested with prosperity and adversity. 

 

Christmas Lights

"It's not all positive, you see,
'It's not on everything we agree."

"Negative, negative why must you be?
For positive promotes prosperity,
But negative promotes adversity."

"Both are needed to shed light for me.
For God baffles to a certain degree,
To make us succeed spiritually.
His trials develop maturity,
Preparing our hearts for ministry,
For before, I had no empathy.
But now - electricity!"

With God's truth we must first agree,
Completing the circuit for you and me.
That light we share for all to see,
Is the light of Christ to set men free.
