Temporary Troubles
by Deborah Ann Belka Though they may be temporary, my troubles still do weigh on my heart, they are heavy on my soul, they do prey. When God needs my attention, I feel like I'm on fire but, He is only testing my faith the depth of my desire. So, He puts me in the furnace, to refine me like gold He uses the potter's wheel so His image He can mold. He uses the word as a bridle, to keep me on the straight path He prunes and He trims so I may never know His wrath. He places me in dark valleys, to see the world's wickedness He puts me in arid places so I'll thirst after righteousness. Though they may be temporary, my troubles still do weigh but, I know they will bring me into a glorious new day! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2 Corinthians 4:17 King James Version "For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;" Copyright 2019 Deborah Ann Belka [email protected] www.hiswingsshadow.com http://poetrybydeborahann.wordpress.com/ TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
