Nov. 02.99: Light For The Day - "What God Promises."

"This is my comfort in my suffer that
Your promise gives me life."
-- Psalms 119:50

-----------------------
"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 the 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.

-- Barbara Cage.
