The degree of spiritual maturity
Is measured by the difficulty
Of stealing your joy and faith in the midst of
Great challenges and difficulties
The greater the spiritual maturity
The harder it is to steal your joy and faith
But in order to gain greater maturity
You must spend time with God and obey His Word
Running away from challenges
Will only impede your growth
So best to face the challenges
And thus let your spirit grow
Walking closely with the Lord
Every step of the way
Allowing the Lord to show
His awesome Glory and Grace
