DID YOU EVER HEAR?
Did you ever hear of anyone being very much used of Christ who did not have some special waiting time,some complete upset or all his or her plans? (FRANCES RIDLEY HAVERGAL)1836-1879.
This was a very godly women who wrote songs...Christian songs,in Great Britain about the same time as Fanny Crosby was writing songs in America. This precious lady did all this while she was very sick.Sick most all her life.I have not known very much sickness until the last 3 years of my life. The lord has blessed me by allowing me to find a church Home,this late in life.I am active there,and much of the time not feeling very well as i am of service.In my little church i know several who have illnesses and they are Faithful 3 or more times a week.My feeling is,how blessed the Lord has made me. He did not have to.It is important that i continue to serve the Lord right up to the time He takes me Home.My prayer is that some soul is impacted in a great way,by how he uses me.As the Apostle Paul said in most of his letters to the churches,"We give thanks always for you all,making mention of you in our prayers.Remembering without ceasing your work of faith,and labor of love,and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ,in sight of God and our Father.(Thessalonians chapter 1:verses 2 and 3). Verse 4...Knowing brethren beloved your election of God.We are chosen of God to labor in love with Him,so lost souls can repent and be redeemed.My Prayer: Heavenly Father,draw all men to you,through your Holy Spirit,as we labor for your gospel...good news.Amen.
