Good Times and Bad Times

 


I am praying with a dear friend for her brother, who is recovering from Covid along with other medical problems.  She mentioned that spring was just around the corner because she had just seen forsythia, daffodils, and dandelions.  Isn’t that the way life is?!  Flowers and weeds grow together.  Good times and bitter times.  But isn’t God good to be with us in good times and not so good times?

 

In shady, green pastures so rich and so sweet

   God leads His dear children along

Where the water's cool flow bathes the weary one's feet

   God leads His dear children along.

 

Some through the water, some through the flood

   Some through the fire, but all through the blood

And some through great sorrow, but God gives the song

   In the night season and all the day long.

 

Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright

   God leads His dear children along

Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night

   God leads His dear children along

 

Though sorrows befall us and Satan oppose

   God leads His dear children along

Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes

   God leads His dear children along
