When The Unexpected Comes

Through the unexpected things

That happens in our lives,

We draw from God the strength we need

To carry on with Christ

For He will always hold us up

Whenever it gets too tough

And carry us through the hardest times

When we can’t feel His love

I know that at these times we feel

Abandoned by our Lord,

We wonder what is going on,

We can’t feel His presence at all

But He has not abandoned us,

Nor forsaken us in our need,

He allows the unexpected things

Be life lessons we should heed

So we will grow with deeper faith

And be strengthened in the Lord

Then when we face the storms of life,

We’ll be stronger than before

So when the unexpected comes,

Remember, God’s in control

And nothing in life is ever wasted,

But are memories that we hold

So when others come across our path

That are facing what we’ve faced,

We’re more than able to share God’s love

And touch them with His grace.
