God loves you! So do we!

[Anthony2019]

A reading from my Daily Prayer book:-

When trouble strikes and fear takes root
and dreams are dry and sense unsound
When hope becomes a barren waste
then doubts like mountains soar around.
Our wandering minds believe the worst
and ask, as faith and fervour fade.
'Has God now turned his back on us,
forsaking those He loved and made?'
God says, 'See how a woman cares,
can she forget the child she bore?
Even if she did, I shan't forget.
Though feeling lost, I love you more.
My dearest daughter, fondest son,
My weary folk in every land,
your souls are cradled in my heart
Your names are written on My hand.'

Beautiful words which can also be sung to any of the tunes of "When I survey".

Yes...It fits beautifully and music always seems to bring words even more alive...

It's good to remind ourselves that God loves us and will never abandon us. 'He is nearer than hands or feet'. We can love one another too and that can make a difference to someone today! Perhaps that someone is you!

Good day to you friend. God loves and so do we!

You don't even know me.

 

[quietbloke]

You don't even know me.

If God loves so do we!

If God loves so do we!

God does, you don't. You can't love someone you don't know.

 

[quietbloke]

God does, you don't. You can't love someone you don't know.

I love you in the love of the Lord'!
