Grow, Where God Planted You

Sometimes in my life,
I have gone through
a difficult time.

I sometimes
would like to move
to another place,
because my challenges
are becoming to hard.

I don’t understand
why life is so hard,
and ask, “Where is God?”

When my challenges
are getting to difficult to handle
I take some quiet time for prayer.

As I pray,
I realize every challenge
is helping me to become
a stronger person.

Wherever I am
there are challenges I need to face,
God has planted me here
to grow close to him.
