GREAT is Thy Faithfulness

The last few weeks have been like a roller coaster to say the least but I am trusting that God is in complete control of my life. I am thankful that I have such a solid rock to stand on. I know that I can't be perfect but as long as God is numero uno in my life...all will be brought to His glory.

I have a hymn that is brought to mind. It is one I used to sing with my mom night after night when things were rough...

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.

Refrain

Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Refrain

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Refrain

p.s. God is SO good.

Alicia,

I'm praying for God's grace for you and that He will continue to remind you of His faithfulness.

That is my favorite hymn because of the truth contained it.

With my prayers,
Teresa
