God Knows Best
Enjoy this inspirational poem about God and about having faith. We hope the words of wisdom in this poetry and in the thoughts give you words to reflect upon. As the Bible says, Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.God Knows Best
by John McLeod, from "Peace...be ever yours"
I wonder, friend, how often you have wept a bitter tear
And asked: "Why is this happening to me?"
"What step was taken wrongly to deserve this dreary fate,
What action brought about this tragedy?"
Only to find in time a vital reason for it all,
And Faith you thought so steady put to test,
To look back with such wonder at the workings of his hands;
'Dear Lord, Thy will be done, and God knows best.'
It happens to us all, we are so mortal and so weak
All too human in our strange an earthly ways,
Falling often by the wayside on our journey through this life
Seeking light and fighting ignorance's haze.
Truly friends, the help is there, for as ye seek so ye shall find
And at journey's end how well you shall be blessed
If you truthfully can say without a doubt within your heart
Dear Lord, Thy will be done, and God knows best!

Robert H. Schuller
"Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe." St. Augustine
"If you can't have faith in what is held up to you for faith, you must find things to believe in yourself, for a life without faith in something is too narrow a space to live." George E. Woodberry
"Faith is a living, daring confidence in God's grace, so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times." Martin Luther
