Why

March 7, 2023

A pride builds inside during good times in life.
We love to take credit for things that we’ve done.
But who do we blame when we run into strife,
When the storms in our life seem to block out the sun?

It’s sad that so many say, “There is no God,”
Make a fist in defiance and reach toward the sky,
Use evil as proof He’s a myth or a fraud.
If God’s really there, then demand to know why.

The Lord God is sovereign, His ways beyond mine.
They’re not mine to question but rather endure.
He loves me in good times when everything’s fine,
But also, through bad times His love is still pure.

Lord I’m humbled and grateful, amazed by Your grace.
You walk with me daily. I feel Your embrace.
