Good Out Of Evil
God judged it better to bring good out of evil than to suffer no evil to exist.
Augustine of Hippo
Because God has judged it
to be much better when
His purpose we don’t get
at the time it may happen
That evil comes upon you
to bring a greater good
and His grace seems untrue
but you have misunderstood
For if you’ve suffered not
that you may just exist
lessons learned will be forgot
when no evils you resist
As the devil then attacks
to steal your soul away
the strength in you lacks
on His path to stay
So next time just remember
the evil that came unto
the Man born in December
Who gave His life for you
And there is no suffering
in the life you live here
unto you that will ever bring
that of our Savior dear!
