GOD'S SCHOOL OF FAITH
By: Irvin L. Rozier
GOD'S SCHOOL OF FAITH
There is no way of learning faith except by trial Stedfastly trusting Jesus as you walk that lonely mile Faith is the substance of things hoped and prayed for Holding on to Jesus while the storms around you roar
Trials that come your way put your faith to the test Causes you to tremble and robs you of your zest In your weakened state you call upon his name The one named Jesus who heals the sick and lame
You may be in God's school of faith this very day Weeping as others are singing, even too weak to pray Your situation and circumstances seem too much to bear Surrounded by difficulties as you eat your meager fare
Hebrews 11 tells of graduates from God's faith school They trusted God even though they were called a fool They realized that they were strangers in this land God had their names engraved in his loving hand
The lessons learned in God's school of faith are priceless He gives you grace to endure your trials and heavy stress One day you will see clearly the results of your faith test When he speaks the word and says enter into your rest
