~*Stepping-Stone To Growth*~

Whatever The Day Has In Store Remember

There's Always A Good Reason For

Everything That Comes Into Our Life,

For Even In Times Of Struggle And Strife

If We But Lift Our Eyes Above

We See "Our Cross" As A "Gift Of Love"...

For Things That Cause The Heart To Ache

Until We Feel That It Must Break

Become The Strength By Which We

Climb To Higher Heights

That Are Sublime...

So Welcome Every Stumbling Block

And Every Thorn And Jagged Rock,

For Each One Is A Stepping-Stone

To A Fuller Life Than We've

Ever Known, And In The Radiance

Of God's Smiles We Learn To

Soar Above Life's Trials...

So Let Us Accept What The Day Brings,

Seeing The Hand Of God In All Things,

And As We Grow In Strength And Grace

The Clearer We Can See God's Face.
