We never face anything that Jesus is not aware of, so when going through 'Trials'...Count it 'All' JOY!!! and PRESS ON! Certainly, this is not easy to do for at such a time one might feel that God has deserted them. However, Our God 'knew' this was something we would have to learn to understand...thus, He gave us 'HIS WORD' to encourage, enlighten and direct us, as we press-on. Bless U!

Thinking about...Trials… Especially those that bring us to our knees in the absence of which some have...no desire to pray *yet…trials…from the material, to the psyche* *come in many* forms, and attack numerous ways A care-free life is for what most pine** living at ease with seemingly no need of help from…Him we want a ‘broken nail’ to be our only whine… our only worry…a missed appointment at the gym *But the Lord Loves us too much* to see us so blind-cast** therein, we learn of Him as we progress through test *and because of 'self' we grow* within hard-task finding...our only refuge ...In The Savior’s Breast Albeit, when in-the-midst of our...perfect life** we find we're facing something…unexpected *don’t lose it...if* your balloon is slashed by trial's knife *look for…The Someone…who's greater than everything…septic* *Never try to fix-it without 'Him', for…you're not God!* *but do what…trials…hope you won’t* do… as they weigh you down and you find yourself bogged turn in prayer to Jesus…handing Him…the hew His** purpose, more-often-than-not, can’t be seen *but* in the end…it's your personal true story *which will help* rebuild a 'tried' soul’s self esteem** prodding them to seek the joy of…Our Redeemer’s Glory! There between the hammer and the plough realize that prayer is what keeps us…God-connected *for whatever He allows will* benefit…somehow… enabling the wounded…to walk…erected Thus, as we travel through this world and our contentment is... marred and shaken know*...you are ever* His precious pearl *which from…His Hands…cannot* be taken Just Thinking about...Trials... 1Peter 4:12-13, John 10:27-28, James 1:2-4 Copyright;jmsbell-4/7/2018**

Between the hammer and the plough prayer is what keeps us going. I admire your great faith and your skillful pen. Keep lighting up the screen, I feel it. xo

Enjoyed your thoughts here, JMS Bell. Don't know if you purposely chose 8 stanzas; a number meaning 'new beginnings'. I thought it was appropriate in context. Peace... rlc

A very inspiring write (poem) on a topic that affects us all, our trials and tribulations. No matter who we are, famous/infamous, rich/poor, everyone has problems they have to deal with. Surely the Great Problem-Solver in the heavens is the answer.

I reluctantly wrote a review just moments ago, and then it vanished. It was as though God didn�t want me to express my thoughts. Not to worry. I had nothing negative to say about your poem. What you had to say in your poem was, as always, very good and thought-provoking.
