Colan Hiatt Poet Rhyme

Trials Into Triumphs

Often in this turbulent world
Harsh trials seem to dominate
Instead of love and compassion
There is often bitterness and hate

Disappointments bring us to our knees
When we try to do that which is right
Then we cry out to God,  - - "Why"
Have I failed to walk in the light ?

But when we consider experiences
Of great Bible characters of yesteryear
It was when they were faced with trials
That God delivered them from their fear

Consider Abraham and his son
Consider Jonah's plight at sea
Consider Daniel in the lions den
Consider that Paul in jail, was set free

Triumph, usually is the product
Of adverse and unwelcome trials
That God "uses", painful circumstances
To buoy us "through", treacherous miles

So, - may He help us, to not grow weary
When these conditions come our way
Trials can be turned into triumphs
Victory awaits, - at end of day !
