Adversity


The scriptures say adversity
is like a university;
it teaches us to trust the Lord
when life has got us really floored.

But I would rather have affliction
stay a warning and prediction.
Just like a stop sign I obey,
for keeping trouble far away.

But if I must be schooled by sorrow,
can't it wait until tomorrow?
I'd rather get my Ph.D
sometime in far eternity!
