HE GIVES IN HIS WISDOM

HE GIVES IN HIS WISDOM


Though we plan for a life time,
Years ago in advance,
Of our leaving this world soon
There is many a chance.

No one knows what is in store.
We all wish for the best.
How shall we improve if we
Are never put to test?

That’s why god indeed tests us
And gives, with pleasure, pain.
Whatever He gives we should,
Thankfully, all retain.

Man is short sighted but He
Can see through our whole life.
Maybe what he gives us is
A boon, not merely strife.

We should gladly accept what
He gives in His wisdom.
Always be thankful to Him
If you want His kingdom.
