Sometimes we can’t cope with life’s disappointments that we’d faced. But we should not lose hope, instead hold onto God’s grace.

Tomorrow’s Surprises

http://www.flickr.com/photos/freewine/478332550/

Sometimes we can’t cope
With life’s disappointments that we’d faced
But we should not lose hope
Instead hold onto God’s grace.

Events that seems to be so unjust
And hard to understand
Are just part of a bigger picture
Of our life that God has planned.

Today’s prospects might have slipped your hands
And with a sigh you uttered, “I have failed”
Cheer up! there’s a lot to be done
Tomorrow is waiting and somehow you will prevail.

So believe in all God’s love
And hold on to His promises
With courage and determination you’ll make it thru
For tomorrow springs surprises.
