Thank God for Tribulations

Inspired by my youngest son Jonathan Liverio-He overcame and is living his dream!

Thank God for Tribulations

When you want to scream
Praise
When you’re down in the pit
Raise
Your voice and be full of joy
Easier said than done
Open your eyes and you’ll see the son
When head bows low, heart sinks beneath the flow
The pain, of guilt and shame…
Holds you in a death grip of sorrow and woe…
Break out of the tomb and into the light
Sing; rejoice for this is right…
Tribulation works patience
And patience, experience
Experience, hope
Hope makes us not ashamed
God gives us His strength
In Jesus name…
Praise God for tribulations…

Romans 5:3-6
5 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
