THE CUP OF LIFE

IF YOU’RE FEELING DEPRESSED, FORSAKEN, OR LONELY

AND HAVE NO ONE TO TURN TO AND CAN SPEAK TO GOD ONLY,

EVEN THEN YOU MAY WONDER AS YOU KNEEL DOWN AND PRAY

WHETHER GOD REALLY LISTENS TO WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.

THE CUP OF THIS LIFE MAY NOT BE OVERFLOWING,

BUT IF YOU ACCEPT WHAT GOD GIVES IN FAITH WITHOUT KNOWING,

ALL YOUR TRIALS AND ALL TRIBULATIONS

WILL BE REWARDED BY GOD BEYOND ALL EXPECTATIONS.

MY SON TOO FELT FORSAKEN, BUT HE THEN UNDERSTOOD

THAT THE PLAN OF HIS FATHER WAS FOR THE ULTIMATE GOOD.
THIS IS A LESSON THAT IS NOT EASILY LEARNED

BECAUSE THE KEYS TO GOD’S KINGDOM BY YOUR TRIALS MUST BE EARNED.
