This Is the Beginning

They said darkness before dawn and pain before pleasure .
I played in the rain and prayed till my hands hurt.
Cried till my eyes swelled up.
But God promised me he wouldn't put on me more than i could bear and all that I 
have endured was for my good but for his glory.
He gives out his blessings in due season and this is my season and this is just the 
beginning.
