Disappointment - His Appointment

Disappointment - His appointment
Change one letter and I see
That the thwarting of my purpose
Is God's better choice for me.
His apppointment must be blessing,
Though it may come in disguise,
For the end from the begining
Open to His wisdom lies.
Disappointment - His appointment
Whose? The Lord's- Who loves me best
Understands and knows me fully
Who my faith and love would test;
For like a loving earthy parent,
He rejoices when He knows
That His child accepts, unquestioned
All that from His wisdom flows.
Disappointment - His appointment,
"No good thing will He withhold,"
From denials oft we gather
Treasures of His love untold.
Well, He knows that each broken purpose,
Leads to fuller deeper trust,
And the end of all His dealings,
Proves our God is wise and just!
