It's Worth It All

IT'S WORTH IT ALL
He carves and sands where I am rough And smooths those corners down And “ouch” it often hurts, I say As His tools go all around And yet I know that when He's through No more a 'plaint I'll make E'n though it may hurt at times I know it's for my sake Sometimes if I had tried to live In a much more careful way This process would be easier On the life I live today Sometimes we learn so very slow God's righteous ways are best His love will not give up on us If we in His arms will rest So let the process continue on Until that glorious day He's made a perfect gem of me And in His arms I'll stay Copyright, Kathryn Search

Thanks, Rose. I enjoy writing poetry and sometimes it turns out pretty well. Sometimes it doesn't. But it is a challenge that is worthwhile.
