GOD IS STILL WITH YOU

 









GOD IS STILL WITH YOU



Have you ever

Faced a period in your life

WHERE you felt

You could no longer

Go on


Perhaps because of health problems

Or financial problems

Or even relationship problems


MAYBE all three

At the same time


You can STILL make it

Our Lord is with you

God is still with you


Cod will carry you onward


“Master-it is good that we are here”                                                  Luke 9:33


God will 

Carry us forward


“He tends his flock

Like a shepherd


He gathers the lambs 

In his arms


And CARRIES them

CLOSE to his heart”                                                                Isaiah 40:11


“Even to your old age

And gray hairs

I am He


I am he

Who will sustain you


I have made you

And I will CARRY YOU


I will sustain you

And I will RESCUE you”                                                                Isaiah 46:4


GOD IS STILL WITH YOU


He will carry you

He will carry me-HOME


He will sustain us

Through every suffering

He will sustain us

Through every anxiety

Through every storm


Jesus was about to enter Jerusalem

To suffer-to die


Almost too much to bear

For the apostles


But Jesus was PREPARING them

And SHARED his transfiguration 

With Peter-James-and John


They were ecstatic

They saw the “glory”

That was to come

Through Jesus Christ


They would NEED this GRACE

To bolster them

In the days ahead


The same way

We need the LORD'S GRACE

In our times of suffering


“For the law

Was given through Moses


GRACE and truth

CAME through Jesus Christ”                                                      John 1:17


“With GREAT POWER

The apostles 

Continued to testify

To the RESURRECTION

Of the Lord Jesus


And GOD'S GRACE

Was so powerfully in work in them all


That there was NO needy persons

Among them”                                                                           Acts 4:33


And God's grace

Is in us

To BOLSTER US

In times of need


GRACE-little rays of GOD'S LIGHT

Is there

In even our darkest moments


God has NOT abandoned us 

He is still with you

He is still with me


And that is forever-

For ALL of eternity-


GOD IS STILL WITH US
