I would like to thank my neighbor, Tom Overton, for posting this on his Facebook page twice recently. He commented “Time again to put a smile on your face” with his last posting.
Thank you, Tom. It did just that.

God Incarnate, the End of Fear
September 24, 2017What a wonderfully uplifting post by Sherry, of the “He Hath Said” blog. Be encouraged by the song “God Will Take Care of You” and by the “Prince of Preacher’s” sermon entitled “God Incarnate the End of Fear!”
You who are King of kings and Lord of lords, we worship You. Before Jehovah’s awful throne we bow with sacred joy.

All My Soul Needs ~
September 4, 2017Another gem by Deborah Ann…
The Lord is my Shepherd,
I want nothing more
then the joy and glory
for me He has in store.
He satisfies my thirst,
my hunger He fills
my anxiety and fears
He calms and stills.
The Lord is my Shepherd,
I want not a thing
for my heart is set
on the peace He’ll bring.
He is my saving Light,
He is my High Rock
I’m so blessed to be
a part of His flock.
The Lord is my Shepherd,
there’s nothing I lack
my faith in Him is all . . .
He want’s me to give back!
~~~~~~~
“The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.”

His Peace
December 13, 2016
I saw this on Ingrid Schlueter’s The Hope Blog today.
I had to share it because it reminds me so much of the unmerited grace that God has had on me. There is pain, there is sadness, yet there is hope and joy.

The Father’s Will
September 21, 2016Sherry has put together a great combination here. Worship God through song and then listen to the Prince of Preachers preach. (I wish it was an actual recording of Mr. Spurgeon’s voice. A good reader will have to suffice.)
If you can’t make it to church, this is the next best thing!
You who are King of kings and Lord of lords, we worship You. Before Jehovah’s awful throne we bow with sacred joy.

Only by Grace
August 12, 2016
Looking back at the partial life story of a neighbor and brother in Christ, Gregory Lane, who passed on over 2 years ago now, I noticed a link to this song. It is an uplifting reminder of the reformation that God has made in every Christian life.
Greg was an inspiration to all who read his blog. His illness with ALS and his attitude about it was a great example to me. Even though we lived in the same State, I never had the opportunity to meet Greg in person. We will meet some day.
I have posted this version of the song so that the words, which obviously meant a lot to Greg, can be read.
Greg continued blogging almost until the end of his earthly life.

He’s Alive!
April 16, 2017Photo from “The Hope Blog”
This is from the 6th Century Christian hymn, “At the Lamb’s High Feast We Sing.”
At the Lamb’s high feast we sing,
Praise to our victorious King,
Who hath washed us in the tide
Flowing from his pierced side;
Praise we Him, whose love divine
Gives His sacred blood for wine,
Gives His body for the feast,
Christ the Victim, Christ the Priest.
Where the Paschal blood is poured,
Death’s dark angel sheathes his sword;
Israel’s hosts triumphant go
Through the wave that drowns the foe.
Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed,
Paschal Victim, paschal Bread;
With sincerity and love
Eat we Manna from above.
Mighty Victim from the sky,
Hell’s fierce powers beneath Thee lie;
Thou hast conquered in the fight,
Thou hast brought us life and light;
Now no more can death appall,
Now no more the grave enthrall;
Thou hast opened Paradise,
And in Thee Thy saints shall rise.
Paschal triumph, Easter joy,
Only sin can this destroy;
From sin’s death do Thou set free
Souls reborn, O Lord, in Thee.
Hymns of glory and of praise,
Father, to Thee we raise;
Risen Lord, all praise to Thee,
Ever with the Spirit be.
