God's Glory - Your Gain

For quite some time now I've been plagued with sickness and disease - Sometimes it's hard 
to do the things I used to do with ease - It seems each time I'd overcome I'd hit another 
wall - Everytime I took a step I soon again would fall - One day not too long ago I went to 
God in prayer - I said "In Your word You tell us to cast on You our care - I said Lord please 
tell me what I've done to make You mad at me - Open up my blinded eyes so I can clearly 
see" - In quietness I heard Him say "My child please understand - Though you are in a valley 
I still hold you in My hand - You have not done a thing my child to make Me mad at you - 
This is for My glory and I'm going to see you through - Remember this My loved one there 
won't always be rain - When I get My glory you will get your gain - You're going to come out 
stronger than you ever did before - I am refining you as gold - Don't worry anymore.

Nicely done write that is on a good topic. I was just thinking this morning about the song and poem about "Footprints In The Sand". Keep writing. Sara
