Faith and wonder
Romans 8:28
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those
who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Bound to a chair moving from day to day
Only to exchange at night for deserved rest
An un-chosen part appointed in mysterious ways
and tolerated by the One Who really knows best
Giving up hope to ever walk again
Knowing deep inside to not stand
Some have tried to change the case
with constant prayer about the now with then
I don’t know the answer ... I can’t grasp the purpose
It is like walking on a blanket of endless snow
Chills easily beset me as my ignorance enslaves me
and only faith can sustain my deep hunger to know
“All works together for good”, is our battle hymn
but all does not appear expedient in my observance of circumstance
People fall and stand but many a good are hurting
and it seems some of the worst are enjoying their inheritance
