THE EVERLASTING ARMS
The people of our times are making more and
more of us mindful of the need for help that is
outside and beyond ourselves.
Perhaps when you are out there groping...reaching...
Perhaps these lines by W. Maurice King would render
solace to your soul...
"Isn't it good to know
When all roads are dead ends and
All skies are overcast and
All dreams are nightmares and
All hills are mountains...
Isn't it good to know
When all faith has oozed out
And there is no place to stand
"That underneath are
The Everlasting Arms."

TO RACE AGAIN
Running
I swiftly go
Toward the finish line
Turning around
I see my nearest competitor
But alas, I fail to see
The pebble in my way
Twisting my ankle
I go down
Rapidly, I rebound
But it is too late
The race is over
My time is spent
I must wait
Until another day
To race again

PSALM 75:1,7,9
Unto thee, O God,
do we give thanks
for that thy name is near
thy wondrous works declare
God is the judge
He putteth down one
and setteth up another
I will declare forever
I will sing praises
to the God of Jacob

LORD OF MY LIFE
Oh how my heart longs for Jesus
To fill up my life with his love
Oh how I long to be with him
Cradled in his arms of love.
Come to my heart, Holy Spirit
Come to my heart like a dove
Come bring peace to my soul
Come from thy throne above.
Father I long for your presence
Father I long for your care
Give me your power to witness
Give me your power to share.
Oh how my heart longs for Jesus
Come fill the void in my life
Now as i'm searching and seeking
Come be the Lord of my life.

PSALM 74:12,17,19
God
is my king of old
working salvation
in the midst
of the earth
Thou hast set
all the boarders
of the earth
Thou hast made
summer and winter
O deliver not the turtledove
unto the multitude
of the wicked
Forget not
the congregation
of thy poor
forever

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
Occasionally, in Sunday School, we
sing an old hymn containing these words...
"Count you blessings
Name then one by one
Count your many blessings
See what God had done..."
An unnamed wit has written...
"Count your blessings...your critics
will keep count of you mistakes."
It is virtually impossible to live an
active, progressive life without being
criticized by somebody at some point in
time.
If criticism is presently discouraging
and defeating you, get aquainted with the
Conqueror of criticism.
And, learn well the lesson He taught...
For as He hung on the cross he prayed...
"Father forgive them..."
