GOD IS IN CONTROL <\/p>\n

Why do you even worry,
\nWhen God is in control,
\nHe made the Universe,
\nYes, every living soul.<\/p>\n

So carefully balanced,
\nAll things by His will,
\nStars, planets and moons,
\nThe cattle on every hill.<\/p>\n

Even your very own life,
\nRests in His great hand,
\nYour hairs are all numbered,
\nLike every grain of sand.<\/p>\n

He will never cast you out,
\nGod is faithful and true,
\nRegardless of what happens,
\nHe’ll always see you through.<\/p>\n

Tho sometimes you may fall,
\nGod will soften the blow,
\nIt is all part of His plan,
\nTo help you learn and grow.<\/p>\n

So trust Him for the future,
\nEven when all seems so dark,
\nYou’ll rise above the waves,
\nGod is your spiritual Ark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
