I know
everything about you
Your
strengths and your weaknesses
Remember, I
gave them to you.
Nothing you
do or say
Or think or
desire
Will
surprise me, for I already know it.
Trust me
even when you can’t see what
I am doing
in your life
I will reveal
it when you are ready.
Persevere,
for it increases your character
And character
will give you hope and assurance
That you
will come out the other side
One day you
will see how all the pieces of the puzzles of your life
Fit together
to form a beautiful picture I have planned
I will
surround you with all you need
Friends and
family, wisdom and knowledge.
You will
receive them when you need them.
Trust me,
for I am not a liar.
I speak only
truth.
I am the
path for you to follow
I am the TRUTH
you must hang onto
I am the LIFE
that you need.
I love you
to the ends of the earth and
I will never
leave you or forsake you.
I am
faithful and will bring about my purposes in your life.
I am working
to grow you in ways you cannot see.
And my plans
will prevail.
You must
simply hold fast to what never changes.
You must hold
onto me.
God tells us all these things in the Bible. Which one(s) comfort or challenge you most? Don't forget to join the conversation.

The first stanza about God giving us our strengths and our weaknesses is a reminder that each of us has a reason to be the way we are.
Beautifully expressed, Ellen
Each of us is unique and God has a reason for it.
"Persevere, for it increases your character
And character will give you hope and assurance"
This is the part that resonates with me the most. Beautifully written Ellen! If only we can persevere through this life the rewards will be so great!
Yep--it's true. Perseverance is hard, but I believe it'll be worth it in the end. I have to tell myself that many times.
