Pains to Blessings

In trials, God transforms our pain,
To blessings, like refreshing rain.
In His power, we place our trust,
From hardships, He brings good, He must.

As sparrows find their safe abode,
And swallows rest from their long road,
We too find peace, secure and near,
When close to God, we cast our fear.

True joy and fulfillment we find,
In worship, with a heart aligned.
Those strong in God, on journeys start,
With blessings filling every heart.

So let us seek His presence sweet,
In prayer, worship, at His feet.
Through reading His Word, day by day,
In God’s embrace, we choose to stay.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
