A Box of Chocolates

Many of us have heard life described as a box of
chocolates - you never know what you will get.
In the early years, the box is full and we
look forward to all the good things to come yet.

Situations come that we don't want to deal with,
we wish they would just go away.
God will give us the means to endure,
Jesus will be there to answer us when we pray.

Dear friends, be sure you know Jesus
He is our sustainer, our very best friend.
When we lose our way, Jesus is there
to help us find it again.

Yes, life is like a box of chocolates
many good times and some that are not.
Jesus cares for us each day
that will never stop.
