Faith-In Hard Times Too

Floating along, so calmly and peacefully,
Enjoying the wind in my face.
Yes, there are troubles, life ain't perfect,
But it's stuff I have no problem dealing with.
It's easy to say I have faith,
That the One Above wrote the script,
I feel like a child being taken care of,
By my Loving Father who wants only what's best for me.

Then, boom!
Something happens.
Something that makes me not able to fall asleep at night,
Something that makes me feel shaky all day.
Something that makes me stop and think,
Did that really happen to me?
To me, whom G-d loves so much,
And takes such good care of?

It's a lot harder to remember that He's still there for me,
That He still wants what's best for me.
It takes a lot more time to remind myself
That I didn't write the script.
And no, I didn't watch the practices for this play.
I just have to remember that all plays have happy endings.
Even if I don't know what it is yet.
The Director is right here in His office,
Watching to make sure all the parts are done right.
I may not know the ending in this world.
But someday, all the pieces will fall into place,
And I'll feel safe and secure once again.
