Give God A
Chance
by
Barbara Philbrook
There are things
I can't understand,
these I put in God's capable hands.
There are things
beyond my control,
I surrender them to God as we are told.
There are things
intended to cause me sorrow,
instead I dwell on Heaven's tomorrow.
There are things
done to get me down,
meant to test my faith and cause me to frown.
There are
instances when I get to make a choice,
that's when I praise God with my voice.
Everything that
happens God uses for my good,
as long as I submit to Him as I should.
God gave me all
of the faith I possess,
giving Him the praise He deserves brings me happiness.
There are times
when things get rough,
then I wonder if my faith is quite enough.
Then I remember
a father saying "Help my unbelief",
I call out the same and get instant relief.
What a marvelous
God we serve,
having all of our needs held in reserve.
We recognize we
have a need,
we take it to Him not having to beg or plead.
Our Father knew
our needs in advance,
and will supply each if we'll give Him the chance.
