God uses pain


I wanted to put the words of a song on my blog again. I had posted them a few weeks ago..but they have a fresh, new meaning for me again this week. So does the quote by C.S. Lewis:

"God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains;it is His magaphone to rouse a deaf world."

I pray the Lord uses all that is going on not only in my life but in yours as well, to rouse a deaf world and cause them to see His glory!

AS LONG AS YOU ARE GLORIFIED

Shall I take from Your hand Your blessings
Yet not welcome any pain
Shall I thank You for days of sunshine
Yet grumble in days of rain
Shall I love You in times of plenty
Then leave You in days of drought
Shall I trust when I reap a harvest
But when winter winds blow, then doubt

Oh let Your will be done in me
In Your love I will abide
Oh I long for nothing else as long
As You are glorified

Are You good only when I prosper
And true only when I’m filled
Are You King only when I’m carefree
And God only when I’m well
You are good when I’m poor and needy
You are true when I’m parched and dry
You still reign in the deepest valley
You’re still God in the darkest night
