When I saw what lay before me,
"Lord," I cried, "what will You do?"
I thought He would just remove it,
But He gently led me through.
Without fire,
There's no refining.
Without pain,
no release.
Without flood,
There's no rescue.
Without testing,
no belief.
Through the fire,
Through the flood,
Through the water,
Through the blood,
Through the dry and barren places,
Through life's dense and maddening mazes,
Through the pain,
And through the glory,
Through we'll always tell the story
Of the God whose power and mercy
Will not fail to take us
THROUGH
Wow! What blessed thoughts!! Life is so full of aches and pains, trials and tribulations, despair, anguish, and heartache that we often times lose sight of our goal--the end of the journey. Along this journey, we will encounter many different hardships as well as many triumphs. Each one comes along for our growth and edification (Of course, how we grow depends on our attitude and reaction to our present situation.) and is used of God to shape and mold us into the image of His Son. He gently prods, coaches, carries, and encourages us along the way. Whether the end of our journey is on the other side of a present difficulty or on the other side of death, God will always guide us through.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words. I Thessalonians 4:18
