Fret-Free Friday: Because
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
Because...
Because God's kingdom is unshakeable, we don't need to steady it.
Because God's provision of salvation is complete, we don't need to improve it.
Because God's love is boundless, we don't need to hoard it.
Because God's way is the best way, we don't need to change it.
Because God's Word is truth, we don't need to spin it.
Because God's hand can open any door, we don't need to force it.
Because God's timing is perfect, we don't need to rush it.
Because God's plan for us comes from a Father's heart, we don't need to fight it.
When we have exhausted our store of endurance
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father's full giving is only begun.
Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;
The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.
His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.
-Annie Johnson Flint
(1866-1932)
