God has not promised skies always blue
flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;
God has not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
But God has promised strength for the day,
rest for the labour, light for the way,
grace for the trials, help from above,
unfailing sympathy, undying love
What a beautiful poem. Got it from zeke. well.. he got it from somewhere else. but it really helps to console people. Got his msg a few days back. Think he is getting rather busy these few days.. pray that he is ok. and his health too.
