Destruction and New Life


The mountain blew itself apart,
Devastating the earth,
But, in the wake of destruction,
New life’s been given birth.
 
Thus it is in our lives also,
When disaster befalls,
Remember that His grace is there
For anyone who calls.
 
Do not let sorrow break your heart
Or trouble weigh you down,
For God has plans to prosper you,
To trade grief for a crown.
 
And, like the mountain torn apart,
New growth will soon begin,
Gladness will overtake your tears
And joy will bloom again.
 
Isaiah 51:11
Those the Lord has rescued will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.
