Romans 8
35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written, "For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered." 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
How comforting to know that you may rest in the calm, sweet assurance of God's love...
ReplyDeleteI DO NOT KNOW
ReplyDeleteI do not know what next may come
Across my pilgrim way;
I do not know tomorrow's road,
Nor see beyond today.
But this I know: my Savior knows
The path I cannot see,
And I can trust His wounded hand
To guide and care for me.
I do not know what may befall
Of sunshine or of rain:
I do not know what may be mine
Of pleasure or of pain.
But this I know: my Savior knows
And whatsoe'er it be,
Still I can trust His love to give
What will be best for me.
I do not know what still awaits
Or what the future brings;
But with the glad salute of faith
I hail its opening wings!
For this I know: that in my Lord
Shall all my needs be met,
And I can trust the heart of Him
Who has not failed me yet.

ReplyDeleteDear John and Henrietta!
ReplyDeleteGod of our life, through all the circling years,
We trust in Thee;
In all the past, through all our hopes and fears,
Thy hand we see.
With each new day, when morning lifts the veil,
We own Thy mercies, Lord, which never fail.
God of the past, our times are in Thy hand;
With us abide.
Lead us by faith to hope’s true promised land;
Be Thou our Guide.
With Thee to bless, the darkness shines as light,
And faith’s fair vision changes into sight.
God of the coming years, through paths unknown
We follow Thee;
When we are strong, Lord, leave us not alone;
Our Refuge be.
Be Thou for us in life our daily Bread,
Our heart’s true Home when all our years have sped.
Love Henry and Jenny
