IF WE COULD SEE BEYOND TODAY

If we could see beyond today As God can see, If all the clouds should roll away, The shadows flee; O'er present grief's we would not fret, Each sorrow we would soon forget, For many joys are waiting yet For you and me. If we could know beyond today As God doth know, Why dearest treasures pass away, And tears must flow; And why the darkness leads to light, Why dreary days will soon grow bright, Some day life's wrong will be made right, Faith tells us so. If we could see, if we could know We often say, But God in love a veil doth throw Across our way. We cannot see what lies before, And so we cling to Him the more, He leads us till this life is o'er, Trust and obey. Norman J. Clayton This song describes so much of what I am going through right now.... I heard it yesterday & it made me think...I can keep trusting Him, because somehow, someway, He knows what He is doing & I know He loves me. Sometimes when bad or unwanted things come my way it's easy to slip into thinking He has forgotten me or is punishing me. It's all about trust & remembering this isn't the end...there is another life to come... and lots of love & joy to be enjoyed now.
