This current season, through which we are passing, is a beautiful time to reflect on the goodness of our Creator. The cold winter months have gone and spring has arrived, bringing new life and freshness to the earth. Although seasons come and go quickly and the weather is always changing, our LORD Who created the earth and it's weather is immutable - never changing. He is a steadfast and sure foundation for all His creation to trust in and will sustain us by His sovereign power. God promises to those who trust and believe in His Son, Jesus Christ: "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." Amidst life's challenges, this promise brings such peace and assurance that only Christ can give. Life will be filled with blessings and trials, which can feel much like a roller-coaster ride and quite unstable at times, but through all of this, we can lean on God - our Rock and Deliverer. We can call upon His name for strength to endure and trust Him no matter what. The following hymn is one of my favorites, and is fitting to meditate on through all seasons of life... May God Bless Your Day! Praise to the Lord, the Almighty Words by: Joachim Neander; Catherine Winkworth
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation! O my soul, praise Him, for He is thy health and salvation! All ye who hear, now to His temple draw near; Praise Him in glad adoration! Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things so wondrously reigneth, Shelters thee under His wings, yea, so gently sustaineth! Hast thou not seen how thy desires e'er have been Granted in what He ordaineth? Praise to the Lord, who doth prosper thy work and defend thee; Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee. Ponder anew what the Almighty can do If with His love He befriend thee. Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him! All that hath life and breath, come now with praises before Him. Let the Amen sound from His people again; Gladly for aye we adore Him!
