• Practicing the Truth Requires a Real Price
• I
• When hardships come, begin to pray:
• "O God! I wish to satisfy You,
• enduring hardship
• to please Your heart,
• no matter how great the setbacks
• I face.
• Even if I must give my life,
• still I work to satisfy You."
• With this resolve, when you pray,
• you will stand firm in your testimony.
• Every time truth is put into practice,
• each refinement,
• each time they are tried,
• each time God's work is upon them,
• people endure great pain.
• This is a test, a battle within,
• the true price to be paid.
• II
• If there's something you want to say,
• but it doesn't feel right inside,
• if it does not benefit
• your brothers and sisters,
• if they may be hurt,
• do not say anything,
• preferring to be pained
• and struggle within,
• for these words
• cannot satisfy God's will.
• Every time truth is put into practice,
• each refinement,
• each time they are tried,
• each time God's work is upon them,
• people endure great pain.
• This is a test, a battle within,
• the true price to be paid.
• III
• The battle inside wages on,
• but you are willing to suffer pain,
• to give up that which you love,
• enduring hardship to satisfy God,
• suffering but never giving in to flesh,
• satisfying the heart of God,
• so you will be comforted as well.
• This is paying the price desired by God.
• Every time truth is put into practice,
• each refinement,
• each time they are tried,
• each time God's work is upon them,
• people endure great pain.
• This is a test, a battle within,
• the true price to be paid, oh~
• the true price to be paid.
