Knowledge, Too Wonderful For Me

This morning the news of the second one of our children needing to replace
the transmission on their vehicles, reminds us,
in this world we will have (expensive) trouble...
but we have a faithful Helper in times of need
to trust day by day...

Ps.46:1
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble...


2 Pet.3:18
But grow in the grace and knowledge
 of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
 To him be glory both now and forever!
 Amen.  



The God who grants countless visual marvels
authors faith's far more awesome and Invisible 
marvels/anchors of the soul!
Hallelujah!

John 16:33
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. 
In this world you will have trouble. 
But take heart! 
I have overcome the world.”


Knowing that You love us, Lord
Knowing that You keep Your word
Knowing that Your word is true
Anchors our hope in You

Knowing that Your no and yes
Leads in paths of righteousness
Comforts us through trouble’s test
Knowing You know what is best

Knowing, when our own strength fails
Your sufficient grace prevails
Cheers us on from day to day
Knowing that You know the way 

Knowing someday, face to face
Will faith’s darksome glass erase
Helps us in all that we do
To keep our eyes on You

Knowing that You hear and care
For the heart outpoured in prayer
Humbles every word and deed
Knowing You supply our need

Knowing You know every part
Every intent of the heart
The cross suffered by your Son

Knowing, that as we believe
And salvation’s gift receive
Joy will crown this old world's woe
Knowing that You love us so

Ps.139:5-6
You hem me in behind and before;
You have laid Your hand upon me.
6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.

  2. Ouch... a second transmission. That not the kind of news we like to hear.

    But I love these lines you share from the Psalms: "You hem me in behind and before; You have laid Your hand upon me..."

    Trust things will turn around
