God’s Ways! Poem by Dr John Celes

God gives His people beloved,
Some problems added in their life;
And if they don’t improve their hearts,
He gives them some more extra strife.

If they neglect the God Most High,
He gives them tribulations rife;
And if they do not heed His word,
He gives His rod and knife!

God’s chosen people can’t escape,
Into a world of vice and sin;
God sees that they obey His words,
All souls, He loves, He’ll win!
