Happy first day of the final week of November 2025!!
(can you believe it?!!)
Ps.145:17-18
The LORD is righteous in all His ways
and kind in all His deeds.
The LORD is near to all who call on Him,
to all who call out to Him in truth.
The Hand that gently draws night’s veil from welkin windows dimmed at dusk
Sustains redemption’s gleaming grail; shadows recede and morning breaks
Where what is done none can undo and what yet waits is beyond us
But what Today grants me and you are mercies renewed for our sakes
The Hand that none can circumvent delivers us from night’s dark hues
Where today’s laughter and lament are waiting to cheer and dismay
This is the day the Lord has made; we give account for how we use
Its fleeting moment-promenade falling like stars soon swept away
The Hand that none can see sustains preordained grants of joy and grief
Beyond reason Logic explains, God orchestrates love’s perfect will
Where what we see and understand are not enough to gauge belief
Behold! God’s goodness sweeps the land in grand persuasion to Be Still
The Hand that leads us if we ask and calms the tempest if we trust
Will help us in each humble task, will keep us in His faithful care
Will hold us in faith’s holy fight, will shepherd stray-prone wanderlust
Will shield us from pitfalls of sight and guard us from the Tempter’s snare
The Hand that gently draws night’s veil from nocturne-nestled countryside
Presides with love that does not fail regardless of perception’s wreath
Where what we want He will appraise and what we need He will provide
As morning breaks and Mercy lays His Hand above, beside, beneath
Janet Martin
Heb.13:20-21
Now may the God of peace,
who through the blood
of the eternal covenant
brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus,
that great Shepherd of the sheep,
to do His will.
what is pleasing in His sight
through Jesus Christ,
to whom be glory forever and ever.
Amen.
