Every child of God goes through times of testing,
When sorrows mount like ocean waves cresting,
Times when the long sought answer is delayed,
When the burdens don't lift leaving us dismayed,
These times linger longer than we often expect,
Leaving us to doubt God and hold Him suspect,
There is a purpose in the testing and all the pain,
Just wait on God - watch - He will prove faithful again,
Tough seasons of testing hurt but they do not last,
One day you'll awake and the testing will be past,
Trust His heart even when you do not understand,
Even times of testing come from His gentle hand,
Do not give up but press on in faith that endures,
The testing will not last God's promise ensures,
God is working in you for His own good pleasure,
One day times of testing will be highly treasured,
Trust He is working an eternal weight of glory,
Writing the next chapters of your testimony story.
