Desolation to Restoration

Posted on December 31, 2020 by Mark Shields

 Difficult days faced
 Going from desolation
 But things fall in place
 To restoration

  
 Because of the Savior
 I learn His ways
 To change behavior
 To give Him praise
  

 As I pray for help
 You will carry me
 To a place of joy
 And set me free

  
 In a sun-scorched land
 Needs are satisfied 
 Reservoirs of water
 Far and wide
  

 Like memories
 Of glorious scenery
 The power of grace
 Fuels my energy

God helps us overcome the difficulties we face by providing us with a model to follow in His Son Jesus Christ. Take inspiration from this poem to help apply your faith in the New Year. The new covenant with God changes our way of life and our thinking.
