Look For The Lessons
Sometimes in the pain & adversity of our trials
we consume ourselves with one thought,
Of how in the world we can escape from it
and the heartache the trial has brought.
But perhaps a better way to focus ourselves
would be to look for the lessons it contains.
For the lessons God sends us are most surely there
woven into the fibers of pain.
How else do we learn compassion for others
if not through our own severed hearts.
For brokenness is a gift the Father will bless
to prove He is doing His part.
No time of affliction is ever gone to waste
if we learn from the comfort God gives.
And when we share that comfort...grace & power is seen
and God gets glory in the life that we live.
Those times of desperation when we fall down before Him
and beseech Him with our own desperate cries,
Somehow and some way make us notice desperate people
because we see them through experienced eyes.
Heartache and adversity teach us and mold us
for they are the "textbook" God tenderly chooses,
To reveal prices lessons of wisdom and compassion
to the children He blesses and uses.

[3] ~ Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
[4] ~ Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
[5] ~ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
[6] ~ And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.
[7] ~ And our hope of you is stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so shall ye be also of the consolation.
(2 Corinthians 1:3-7 )(KJV) |
