Poem#24 Seasons of Grief & Growth
Job 1, Ecclesiastes 3
Theirs no reason we can think of why it’s happening now
Not always a reason for the seasons we’re going through
God doesn’t need a reason for allowing, but for pride
Satan comes & goes seeking whom he can devour to destroy
But God says look at my Servant who serves God’s righteousness
Who can handle this storm when remembering God is with Them
Season of Winter comes on us All as we’re all dying inside of growth
Waiting for the Spring thawing bringing new life growing pains & trials
Which doesn’t always bring the growth expected as weeds take over
While God’s grieving with us as we’re going through loss He’s looking
God’s seeing what we can’t always see the pride growing inside hearts
Not until the wound appears allowing for His Light to shine inside
Summer tends to get hot & dry just like our times at the Lord’s Well
We’ve been putting off that drink of water & wonder why it’s so hot
While the Bible sits collecting dust of our ever barren heart
The more hearts tend to dry the more weeds of pride tend to grow
Remember even though Jesus is the Living water, we still need to drink
The thirst in Christ is only satisfied when we’re drinking His Word
Seasons of grief come & go like the storms revealing our heart
Which God sees but if He doesn’t pullout the weed of pride growing
We’re like drifting out to sea getting harder & harder to come back
