god's continual encouragement to me durng this difficult period

ps116
i love the lord for he heard my cry for mercy

because he turned his ear to me

i will call on him as long as i live

...

then i called on the name of the lord 'o lord, save me!'

... ...

be at rest once more o my soul
for the lord has been good to you ...

ps 118

in my anguish i cried to the lord and he answered by setting me free
the lord is with me, i will not be afraid
what can man do to me

the lord is with me he is my helper
i will look in triumph on my enemies.

it is better to take refuge in the lord than to trust in man
it is better to take refute in the lord than to trust in princes

i was pushed back and about to fall but the lord helped ;me
the lord is my strength and my song
he has become my salvation he has become my salvation

amen.

god's word to me today.


i love you jesus.

i found matthias' song 'this is my father's world' - this is the song for him.

This Is My Father's World
C G7 C
This is my Father's world,
F C G7
And to my listening ears
C G7 E C
All nature sings and round me rings
G7 C
The music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world,
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas,
His hand the wonders wrought.
This is my Father's world
The birds their carols raise.
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their Maker's praise.
This is my Father's world
He shines in all that's fair;
In the rustling grass, I hear Him pass,
He speaks to me everywhere.
This is my Father's world,
O let me ne'er forget:
That thought the wrong seems oft' so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father's world,
The battle is not done
Jesus who died shall be satisfied,
And the earth and heaven be one.

god's reassurance to me

jesus i pray for both of us who are very busy at work, grant us the strength and the joy. not by our bow but by your name dear lord.

thank you for speaking to me this morning.

ps 44

With your hands you drove out the nations and olanted our fathers...

it was not by their sword that they won the land, nor did their arm bring them victory.

it was your right hadn, your arm and the light of your face, for you lvoe them.

i do not trust in my bow my sword does nt bring me victory but you give us victory over our enemies

in god we make our boast all day longa nd we will praise your name forever.

ps 55
cast your cares on the lord and he will sustain you he will never let the righteous fall

ps 54
surely god is my help
the lord is the one who sustains me.

thank you jesus for supporting and encouraging me all the way. every step of the way you are here. not only you support and encourage, you also sustain and grant victory.

praise be to god and i pray that my children will have a persoanl walk with you.
