My mother-in-law emailed this to me. I know it’s a little corny, but it makes a good point. Keeping my focus on God, being thankful and praising Him, have helped me walk through some of the more difficult times in my life with a lot less pain than if I hadn’t.<\/p>\n
A<\/strong>lthough things are not perfect
\nB<\/strong>ecause of trial or pain
\nC<\/strong>ontinue in thanksgiving
\nD<\/strong>o not begin to blame
\nE<\/strong>ven when the times are hard
\nF<\/strong>ierce winds are bound to blow
\nG<\/strong>od is forever able
\nH<\/strong>old on to what you know
\nI<\/strong>magine life without His love
\nJ<\/strong> oy would cease to be
\nK<\/strong>eep thanking Him for all the things
\nL<\/strong>ove imparts to thee
\nM<\/strong>ove out of “Camp Complaining”
\nN<\/strong>o weapon that is known
\nO<\/strong>n earth can yield the power
\nP<\/strong>raise can do alone
\nQ<\/strong>uit looking at the future
\nR<\/strong>edeem the time at hand
\nS<\/strong>tart every day with worship
\nT<\/strong>o “thank” is a command
\nU<\/strong>ntil we see Him coming
\nV<\/strong>ictorious in the sky
\nW<\/strong>e’ll run the race with gratitude
\nX<\/strong> alting God most high
\nY<\/strong>es, there’ll be good times and yes some will be bad, but…
\nZ<\/strong>ion waits in glory…where none are ever sad!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
