I know that
You can do all things,
and that no purpose of Yours
       can be thwarted.

               Job 42. 2

(We cannot know
    all that God is doing
    in this difficulty,
but we do know
    that God is working in it
    and through it.
His purposes always exceed
         what we grasp
and far above and beyond
             our limited vision.
Why is this situation so hard?
Because God is bringing
      so much good
      that will come of it.
We no longer just believe,
    but know that God is God,
    and we are His beloved.)

O LORD,
Through it all, dear LORD,
we need not comprehend,
    but learn
    to trust You more.
We cannot see
   from where we stand,
because sometimes
          we are just too short,
sometimes because
   we cannot see through
                  to Your glory.
But we can always trust You.
Align our hearts with Yours
  and help us to walk with You,
even in the details
  that are never small after all.
