great god...

How great is God, The Lord! There's not a thing

his power cannot accomplish, he made all;

his understanding frees me up to sing.

since I'm not God, myself I can be:  small!

The righteous will face many challenges.

The Lord will save them from them all at last,

-  not then defeated by imbalances,

he won't leave them forever squashed, downcast!

We live by faith and not by sight, in this...

he knew well, we’d have trouble in this … world.

So when the tri-als come, we know Jesus

's victory, is like a flag unfurled.

And when we fix our eyes on him - we look

beyond the things of this world, he’s the door-

way to eternal bright perspectives shook

with silver foil, and gold that’s paving, for

more light comes where I am, to this picture.

I know that we are never given more

than we can handle; ’nfact, these tri-als are

allowed just 'coz more vict’ry lies in store.

And in this light, they serve as proving grounds

for faithfulness of God enhancing powers

of his children, their test-i-mo-ny found

since further beauty, love, and grace are ours.

Yes, trouble in this world, he overcame

& promised that we too, through him shall do.

So don’t lose heart, or slow, or be ashamed,

a harvest we will reap of blessing too!

How great is our God!! There's nothing His power cannot accomplish and He has understanding of everything. Psalm 147:5 (PM Version)

The righteous face many challenges,but The Lord will save them and will not let them be defeated. Psalm 34:19 (PM Version)

We live by faith and not by sight... Jesus knew well that we would have trouble in this world. So when the trial comes, we take heart in Jesus' victory, fix our eyes on him - looking beyond the things of this world to an eternal perspective - and know that we are never given more than we can handle. In fact, these trials are allowed purely because of the victory that lies within them, and seen in their true light, only serve as a proving grounds for God's faithfulness; to enhance the power of our testimony to bring Him further glory & to promote us into deeper levels of faith in the kingdom... Yes, we will have trouble in this world, but Jesus has already overcome it & promised that we shall too through Him...'
2 Corinthians 5:7, John 16:33, Hebrews 12:2 & 1 Corinthians 10:13 (CR Version)

Let us not lose heart and get tired of doing what is right. Don't get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time. Galatians 6:9 (PM Version)
