God Knows The Score

Have you ever been caught in a web you didn’t weave, involved in conditions that are hard to belive? Have you felt you must speak and explain and deny a story that’s groundless or a small, whispered lie? Have you ever heard rumors you would like to refute or some telltale gossip you would like to dispute? Well, don’t be upset God knows the score and with God as your judge you need worry no more. For men may misjudge you but God’s verdict is fair for He looks deep inside of every small detail in your patter of living and always He’s lenient a fair and forgiving.
