Why Does God Let Us Experience Trials and Refinement?

By Li Tong

2019 Christian Song "Those Who God Will Save Are Foremost in His Heart"

Christian worship Song "Those Who God Will Save Are Foremost in His Heart" The Love of God Is Good

How significant is God’s saving work,
more important than all other things to Him.
With purposed plans and will, not just thoughts and words,
He does everything for all mankind.
O how significant it is, God’s saving work, for both man and Himself.
How busy God is, what effort He makes.
He manages His work, rules all things, all people.
Never seen before, at so great a price.
In His work, God reveals to man bit by bit
what God is and has, the price He’s paid, wisdom, power, all His disposition.
No matter how hard the work, no matter what obstacles,
no matter how weak and rebellious man is,
nothing can stop God, nothing’s too hard, nothing’s too hard.
