The Good Lord Knows What Yet Remains...

Dear Lord, give us ears to hear You today
And hearts that desire to trust and obey
And hands that are busy and feet that are shod
With the readiness of Your gospel, oh God 
Amen


Galatians 5:16
So I say, walk by the Spirit, 
and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

Happy June morning to you 💗




The Good Lord knows what yet remains
Of unplumbed more or less
Beyond man’s gaze His grace sustains
His timeless promises

Then, fitted with His perfect law
(summed up in one word; love)
Today’s invitation to awe
Is like a treasure trove

That overflows with thoughts and ways
Beyond our wildest ken
Creation’s vault thunders with praise
Wonder replies, ‘amen’

Then what have we to fear? But this;
Of dire consequence
To look God in the eye and miss
His glorious evidence

The Good Lord knows what yet remains
With truth and righteousness
His perfect providence sustains
His timeless promises

Colossians 3:12
Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved,
 clothe yourselves with hearts of compassion, 
kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

'Creation’s vault thunders with praise
Wonder replies, ‘amen’ '
