What God Promises

He doesn't promise sunny days;

just a rainbow at the end of a storm.

He doesn't promise silver and gold,

but to provide for your needs.

He doesn't promise to make your life trouble free,

just to give you strength to see things through.

He doesn't promise all the answers,

just that He'll direct your path.

He doesn't promise you understanding,

but faith that will see you through.

He doesn't promise freedom from despair,

only joy and peace in believing.

He doesn't promise that you'll never fail,

just that your strength and hope will be renewed.

He doesn't promise you'll have no fears,

but that He is always there.

Most of all, He promises unconditional and everlasting love.
