For every pain that we must bear, For every burden, every care, There's A Reason
For every grief that lowers the head, For every tear drop that is shed There's A Reason For every hurt, for every plight,
For every lonely pain-racked night. There's A Reason
But, if we trust God as we should, It all will work out for our good. We know that for those who love God All things work together for good
Romans 8:28

"For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of
my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Hence
forth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at
that day"
n Timothy &-8

brought her through when doctors gave up.
