We may wait till He explains,
Because we know that Jesus reigns.
It puzzles me, but, Lord, You understandest,
And will one day explain this crooked thing.
Meanwhile, I knew that it has worked out Your best-
It’s very crookedness taught me to cling…


You have fenced up my ways, made my paths crooked,to keep my wand’ring eyes fixed on you,
To make me what I was not, humble, patient;
To draw my heart from earthly love to You.


So I will thank and praise You for this puzzle,
And trust where I cannot understand.
Rejoicing You do hold me worth such testing,
I cling the closer to Your guiding hand.

~F.E.M.I. Streams in the Desert

And I woke up for the past few days with this song on my lips…

 

Have a nice weekend;)
