Bumps and bruises with many a valley low;
on a journey filled with broken and bleeding hearts.
Comfort eludes us while questions flood our restless soul;
but by God‘s love and grace there are brand new starts.
Speculation from the untrained eye;
perceives a life untouched and filled with ease.
But the soldier of the cross bears scores of battle scars;
that often times only the Father sees.
God never chose to answer Job’s questions;
while day after day writhing in pain.
What He did for this sojourning warrior;
was restore his life once again.
God does not always speak in affliction;
one must believe He is ever there.
Mercy and love is the language He chooses;
which is sufficient proof that He cares.
Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. Psalm 71:20
