“I should view my trials with joy”
Lord, help me dwell on these words this morning
Bind them to my thoughts, my emotions
and my heart and mind
Even though I seek comfort and pleasure
You are good, faithful and loving
My trials are a test of my faith
That I should experience peace in You
Suffering produces endurance
Endurance character, character hope
And hope God’s love
I should rejoice in the hope and glory of God
With hope poured into my heart by the Holy Spirit
I can view difficult times as a sign of the zeal
of Your redemptive love for me
I can rejoice in the holiness of my sufferings
