Storm Security

"When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee;

and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee:

when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned;

neither shall the flame kindle upon thee."

 

~Isaiah 43:2~

 

Jesus Christ is no security against storms,

but He is perfect security in storms.

He has never promised you an easy passage,

only a safe landing.

 

~L. B. Cowman~

Pathways

"But He knoweth the way that I take:

when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold."

~Job 23:10~

God has not promised skies always blue,

flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;

God has not promised sun without rain,

joy without sorrow, peace without pain.

But God has promised strength for the day,

rest for the labor, light for the way,

grace for the trials, help from above,

unfailing sympathy, undying love.

~Annie Johnson Flint~

Any and All

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,

 as some men count slackness;

 but is longsuffering to us-ward,

not willing that any should perish,

but that all should come to repentance."

~2 Peter 3:9~

There is no one so lost that Jesus cannot find him and save him.

~Andrew Murray~

Wanted

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,

saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil,

 to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me,

and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall

search for me with all your heart."

~Jeremiah 29:11-13~

It is not what we do that matters, but what a

sovereign God chooses to do through us.

God doesn't want our success; He wants us.
