    A Moment Away

    A Moment Away

    Rewarding us in secret our Father gives us back
    What the enemy took through attack
    The heat and rain took it away
    Weight of oppression made our backs sway
    Pests ate away what didn’t rot
    Relief we vainly sought
    But suffering is sometimes a disguise
    For we will be eternally in paradise
    No rain will be there, or wind or snow
    But perfectly the fruit will grow
    So there is no need to sorrow over today
    For eternity is but a moment away

    Thank you. The idea just kind of came to me, and I wrote it and it sounded good, so I kept it. This is the verse that has been sticking with me lately:

    Habakkuk 3:17 Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
    18 Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
