The Granite Wall

I came against a granite wall—
It would not break nor bend;
I tried to get around it, but
It seemed there was no end;
I tried to climb up over it,
But its sides—they were too steep;

Then I tried to dig beneath it, but
Its foundation was too deep:
I took my problem to the Lord,
I left it in His care;
And when I sought that wall again—
It wasn't even there!
