Something New

It was one year ago He brought me through great affliction 
One year He began to teach me what faith is
To truly know He will use whatever He allows
For His great purposes
Since then He brought me through tests, trials too 
He formed and shaped me in the desert place
Where He began something new
Yet at the time I did not see nor understand 
The wonderful work which He began
He formed streams in the desert
His abundant life flowing forth
Giving joy even in hardship 
This desert place
He uses every moment still
Testing my faith and love in them
With those challenging moments 
He is in each one
Walking with me hand and hand 
Through them all
It’s never dull when I stop to seek
For His firm hand to hold fast
Listening to His voice 
“Don’t turn here, come this way instead”
Joy is found in Him alone
It’s nothing I have done,
His love goes beyond all understanding 
He gives me delight in desiring to please Him
