“If You Never Felt Pain”
If you never felt pain,
How would you know
that I’m a Healer?
If you never went through bondage,
How would you know
that I am a Deliverer?
If you never had a trial,
How could you call
yourself an Overcomer?
If you never felt sadness,
How would you know
that I am a Comforter?
If you never made a mistake,
How would you know
that I am willing to Forgive?
If you never were broken,
How would you know
that I can make you whole?
If you never had problems,
How would you know
that I can solve them?
If you never had any suffering,
How would you know
what I went through?
If you never went through the fire,
How would you become pure?
If I simply gave you all things,
How would you appreciate them?
If I never corrected you,
How would you know that I love you?
If you had all power,
How would you learn to depend on me?
If your life was perfect,
What would you need me for?
