Sometimes life seems hard to bear,
Full of sorrow, trouble and
woe
It's then I have to remember
That it's in the valleys I
grow.
If I always stayed on the mountain top
And never
experienced pain,
I would never appreciate God's love
And would be
living in vain.
I have so much to learn
And my growth is very
slow,
Sometimes I need the mountain tops,
But it's in the valleys I
grow.
I do not always understand
Why things happen as they
do,
But I am very sure of one thing.
My Lord will see me
through.
My little valleys
are nothing
When I picture Christ on the cross
He went through the
valley of death;
His victory was Satan's loss.
Forgive me Lord,
for complaining
When I'm feeling so very low.
Just give me a gentle
reminder
That it's in the valleys I grow.
Continue to strengthen
me, Lord
And use my life each day
To share your love with
others
And help them find their way.
Thank you for valleys,
Lord
For this one thing I know
The mountain tops are glorious
But
it's in the valleys I grow!
Have a blessed day!

Ephesians 4:15
But speaking the truth in love,
may grow up into him in all things,
which is the head, even Christ:

But grow in grace, and
in the
knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
To him be
