I’m Learning

~~~~**~~~~

I’m learning not to question
the trials that come my way
but to rest in God’s sweet peace
knowing help He’ll not delay.

I’m learning I can trust Him.
My best is His desire
I’ve learned that my obedience
is all that He requires.

It’s not always easy
as I strive to do His will
I may often falter yet
I know He loves me still.

His love is unconditional
and because He doesn’t change
I know that I can go in prayer
to call upon His name.

I’ve learned that it’s more blessed
to give than to receive
and as I pray for others
He meets our every need.

Storm clouds bring the rainbows
just as trials bring forth growth
I will keep my eyes on Jesus
To His promise I must hold.

I’ve also discovered that
until the day I die
I will continue learning
and I’ve stopped asking, "Why?"

We learn from each other
as we walk this path in life
if we’ll walk in God's love…
not in earthly strife.
