Have Faith In God

He is God when times are good
He is God when times are bad
He is not always understood
Even when happy or especially sad 

Love God more than man
Expect to be uncomfortable and
Know that the your prayers are heard
But first seek comfort in God’s word 

Are you a soldier of God
Only when times are easy
Know this dear heart
God delivers to the needy

If you find your heavenly home
Here on this evil earth
You must somehow atone
To gain heaven and glorious worth

A land built on crookedness
Has a frail foundation
One can now look at this
As a warning to other nations

God will have His way
And you must not lose faith

He has tremendous faith in us: Keeps letting us wake up every morning. The least we can do is have (a little?) faith in Him... Smiles, Gershon
