Whispers of His Power – MARCH 17
He said not: Thou shalt not be tempested, thou shalt not be travailed, thou shalt not be distressed; but He said: Thou shalt not be overcome.’
He said not: Thou shalt not be tempested, thou shalt not be travailed, thou shalt not be distressed; but He said: Thou shalt not be overcome.’
….mostly, when I sit tending the scratches on my ego after yet another encounter in the briar patch of my life, I realise that I am the only one who can do anything about this.
There is a wonderful word even in this sad book. He hath made everything beautiful… He hath set eternity in their heart – the heart of all beautiful things.
Let Your blood cover me
Wash me white and set me free
Let Your blood make me clean
Today….
The Lord help us to give Him the joy that our children give to us when they loyally and lovingly keep our words.
God’s love is very brave. He trusts us not to look back and wonder about things, or wonder about present things either, or fear for future things.
It is in living everyday lives of righteousness and performing acts of unquestioning service that the glory of God is revealed.
Do you sometimes say in your heart, ‘So-and-so is very hard to put up with’? If God puts up with us we ought also to put up with one another.
It does not matter where we, or those close to us, have met the generous love of our Beloved, it only matters that with us He may find a place where he can ‘Lay down His sweet head…..’
If we seem to receive a stone when we pray today, let us rejoice, for we know the blessed secret of the rock and the flint.
