Analysis of Love and Faith



I know it's hard but don't be sad,
God's strength will see you through
These days that seem so very bad,
But know that He loves you!

You will be tempted to have doubt
And ask the Lord, "Why me?"
But please try hard to think about
His peace that sets us free!

It is a peace nobody knows
Except from God above,
By trusting Him with faith that shows
To all, our Christian love!
