I’ve a story to tell
Though old, ever new
It’s the greatest love story
Mankind ever knew

Of a Bridegroom who’s Father
Had chosen a Bride
For the Son of His Love
His joy and His pride

His Son left the Kingdom
Of Light up above
To a kingdom of darkness
To set free His love

Guarded by dragons
And fierce dogs of hell
His bride lived in darkness
And thought all was well

Till He broke through the gates
With a two edged sword
And pierced through the darkness
And fought off the hordes

The light of His countenance
Turned night to day
And wherever He went
The dark kept at bay

He washed her and clothed her
In raiment pure white
And His love overflowed
For she was His delight

He returned to prepare
A feast for His bride
And soon He will fetch her
To live at His side

 

 

Love does not gossip
Is never unkind
Love does not envy
And love isn’t blind

Love is forgiving
Love’s patient and strong
Not boastful, nor proud
Keeps no record of wrong

Love isn’t self-seeking
Self-centered, or rude
Not easily angered
Love always does good

Love never slanders
Love covers all sin
Love does not cause discord
Love does not wear thin

Love joys not in evil
Rejoices in truth
Prefers one another
Is never uncouth

Love always protects
Trusts, hopes, perseveres
Love never fails
And Love never fears

 

 

From the fullness of HIS grace we have ALL received one blessing after another.
Sometimes we’re just too busy complaining about the problems in our lives to even notice the constant blessings of GOD. Sometimes we even wonder where He is in our time of need, when we seem to have no answers. The truth is, He’s never left us for a moment. He is constantly thinking about us.

Psalms 139:17-18 says: How precious to me are Your thoughts, oh GOD! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake, I am still with you.

The truth is that if you’re looking for a life of roses, you should expect the thorns. GOD never once promised an easy ride, but He did promise that when we pass through the rivers, they would not pass over us; and when we pass through the fire, we would not be burned. Trials build our character and our faith. They teach us perseverance through anything that life throws at us. As long as we keep our focus on Him, He will bring us through and lift us to higher ground. All of His promises are true. What He said He will do. It may not come as quickly, or in the manner that we hoped for, but His promises are YES in Christ. 2Cor.1:20
