Your Response To Trials

Trials are a part

Of everyday life.

They come and go

Leaving some wrecked

And damaged.

 

While some people

Respond positively

To trials

By clinging more to

God and depending

On Him,

Some are left devastated

And completely defeated.

 

Some even go into despair,

Loosing hope and faith

In God and humanity.

 

Trials only expose

How vulnerable

We are as humans,

Because no one

Is exempted from trials

It is only wise

For us to determine

That trials will

Not make us bitter.

 

Rather, we decide

That we will develop

Positive traits even

In the midst of

The trials.

 

Trials should make

Us develop patience

Perseverance, endurance

Fortitude, hope, faith

Joy, kindness courage.

 

Trials should make us

Become more hardworking

And energetic, giving us

That I can do attitude

That will make us more

Than conquerors.

 

Trials should

Ultimately make us

Victorious in Christ,

If our response is positive

And right.
