God's ways are not our ways <br />At times we wish they were <br />How easy it would be <br />If troubles did not occur. <br /> <br />But through the ways of God <br />He trains us for a task; <br />Something precious in God's sight <br />It helps remove our mask. <br /> <br />God's ways are opposite to man's <br />And I thank the Lord for this; <br />For if I walked mine own way still <br />The narrow path I'd miss. <br /> <br />The path of God is narrow <br />And the walls are called 'salvation' <br />Each stone tells a story <br />For God's way is revelation. <br /> <br />Isaiah 55: 7-12<br /><br />Richard Merrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/god-s-ways-3/
