The Will Of God

The will of God will never take you,

Where the grace of God cannot keep you,

Where the arms of God cannot support you,

Where the riches of God cannot supply your needs,

Where the power of God cannot endow you.

The will of God will never take you,

Where the Spirit of God cannot work through you,

Where the wisdom of God cannot teach you,

Where the army of God cannot protect you,

Where the hands of God cannot mold you.

The will of God will never take you,

Where the love of God cannot enfold you,

Where the mercies of God cannot sustain you,

Where the peace of God cannot calm your fears,

Where the authority of God cannot overrule for you.

The will of God will never take you,

Where the comfort of God cannot dry your tears,

Where the Word of God cannot feed you,

Where the miracles of God cannot be done for you,

Where the omnipresence of God cannot find you.

One day we are all going to look back and see things clearly...VERY CLEARLY!There may be some things that cause us confusion and pain right now, but it won't last. No circumstance in this old world lasts forever.Once we are in eternity...let me write that again- ETERNITY... there is only one thing that will matter. To know and be known by Jesus Christ!My parents are with the Lord- what an amazing thought! Every pain they suffered, every rejection they faced, every financial loss- everything "good" or "bad", it has all been put into perspective. Eternity's perspective.
That which does last and that which doesn't last. The question we all need to answer, before it is answered for us.This day, this little twenty-four hour blink-of-an-eye, needs to be into its place in our hearts.
"Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he is us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.And we know and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him." 1 John 4:13-16
One day we are all going to look back and see things clearly... VERY CLEARLY!
